4th grade for me, so barely old enough to understand the significance, but definitely old enough to remember airports without TSA, and being able to go all the way to the gate with whomever was flying.
At first they just told I think 7th and 8th grade and let us watch CNN. Told us not to talk about it with the younger kids.
That lasted until a bit before lunch when parents picking up kids sped up. It really ramped up once news hit about the one that crashed in PA as it was less than an hour from us.
That was kinda the wildcard at the time. We all knew that area and there's not a whole lot out there. Definitely was a worry that it was going to be a much wider attack in the moment.
