I talked to The Girl’s teacher today. She called about a half hour ago or so. She was very apologetic and near tears. She said that they did not watch a video of the Northridge Quake, but that they had been talking about it. Then they went inside and she turned on the news to show the kids that all of the schools in the state were running this drill. Unfortunately, they then showed the actors and actresses that were made up to look like they were injured…they do this so that emergency personnel can actively participate in the drill. That is what The Girl saw.
Her teacher must have apologized 100 times during the course of this phone call. She thanked me for writing her the letter, and said that she will be more sensitive to this in the future.
I feel better now.
