Visiting Spratley Middle School
Yesterday I visited Spratley Middle School in Hampton, Virginia. Students were respectful and attentive.
Spratley students have a dress code and they looked terrific wearing school colors.
I enjoyed my visit. I hope the students learned a little about how writers work. I also hope they became interested in contraband slaves in Hampton, the Emancipation Oak, and other treasures of our local history.
Thanks for being such a great audience!
