[山东淄博2020高一期中]Like any new ninth-grader on the first day of school, Joemar Class had ninth-grade emotion(情绪). He’s not used to school in Hartford. He's used to going to school in his hometown of Puerto Rico, and used to having class in Spanish.
“Nervioso” , he said in Spanish.
We first met Joemar in mid-October in the San Juan Airport. His father, Gulliermo Class, had sold his car to buy plane tickets to get his kids and fly them up from Puerto Rico. The island was almost destroyed by the deadly storm-Hurricane maria.
Now, they are settling into their new home in Hartford’s South End. A week later, using his wife's car, Mi Class drove 16-year-old Joemar to his first day at Bulkeley High School.

“I see you have a new uniform(校服),” Levitz said. “You look great. Are you ready for a good first day ”
Then he met a couple of teachers.
“Hello,” they each said in Spanish. They asked where he’s from, and told him they were happy to see him.
Then, Levitz took him on a quick tour of the school before classes began-to her office, the school store, the library and the dining hall.
A total of 19 languages are spoken in Bulkeley High School. “We have so many new students coming here from other countries every single day, " Levitz said. “So it is not like he’s the only one who has that feeling.”
“You could tell he's a little worried,” Guillermo said as we left. “But, at the same time, he’s looking forward to it.”
