On April 8th of this year, students on campus were able to see a partial solar eclipse during their third-period class. Students reminisced about seeing a total solar eclipse back in August of 2017 when all current LJHS students were in elementary school. Interestingly, the next solar eclipse that will be visible to San Diegans will be in 2044, and students will be in their mid-late 30s. Hence, we asked the following question: Where do you see yourself in 2044?
