Basement School

Basement School

“So you had a class — you only got physics one day a week, the same thing on every one of these other classes.”

Steve Runkle

“The schools close, you get these places to use churches and other facilities, how do you do that? How does that all get paid for?”

Steve Runkle

“We had other classes in different buildings, but you had five hours of class.”

Peyton Humphrey

“It really disrupted and destroyed school life for a semester.”

Peyton Humphrey

“We all wanted to be their best friends.”

Byrd Leavell

“You didn’t realize there was a lot of turmoil.”
