Students and teachers at BDHS decided to share some embarrassing moments as the 2018-2019 school year kicks off. 

One freshman shares an experience from eighth grade year. Her class was going on a field trip where everyone had to wear fancy attire. “A nice, almost ball gown-like attire,” she said. Unfortunately, she showed up to school in a ball gown, having nice hair and shoes as well, on the wrong day. When she did not see other kids wearing nice clothes, she thought, “Oh, not everyone must not be going.” But, when one of her friends told her it was not until the next day, she was very embarrassed. “I looked like something out of a Disney movie,” she stated, “I had the dress, I had the hair, I had the shoes, and everything.” She did not have a change of clothes either, since gym was the next day.

The next story happened to an anonymous student in third grade. It was field day and they were on the basketball court, running around, when they had tripped over their own feet. Nobody stopped to help them. “Everyone was jumping around me,” they explained. They had broken their nose that day and does not share it openly at all.  

The last story is from Ms. Meghan Ragghianti. It was her very first day of teaching a class, and one student had come up and introduced themselves to her, who replied with, “Hi, I’m Meghan! I mean Ms. Ragghianti!” She was not used to introducing herself as a teacher. “I share it with other teachers and sometimes with my classes,” she said, finding the moment funny.
