A video that McCallie School put together about five graduating seniors and which uses video from six-plus years ago of their sixth-grade selves asking them future questions has gone viral.
In a letter to parents sent on Tuesday, Theda Griffin, the executive assistant to the head of school, said the video has gone far beyond the McCallie community. She said it was shown Tuesday on the NBC “Today” show’s “Morning Boost” segment featuring Jenna Bush Hager, the daughter of former President George W.
Bush.
Ms. Griffin also said that the school received a call from ABC’s “World News Tonight” with David Muir, and it was scheduled to run a feature on the video on Tuesday on its “Good News” segment at the end of the 6:30 p.m. newscast.
The graduating students, who answer their sixth-grade selves’ questions of several years ago, are Canon Brock, Will Turrell, Nkenge Ashford, Christian Lawhorn and Ward Richey.
