About this episode
The episode reflects on the author's experiences as a fourth grader navigating school life.
By the time I became a fourth grader, I knew my way around the culture and the campus of my school. I wasn’t “new” anymore. My condolences went to the latest class of first graders. I’d survived, and with a little luck, so would they.
