  • Harvey School September 1957 to May 1958 Michael West, Class of 1958 We Were Still at Hawthorne Circle… the Day My Father
    1 Harvey School September 1957 to May 1958 Michael West, Class of 1958 We were still at Hawthorne Circle… The day my father dropped me off on a sunny September day, I remember my excitement, getting checked in and then getting fitted for a football uniform. As I was trying on a new pair of cleats, my father said, “Well, I’ll be going now.” He turned to go back to the car and drive off - leaving me there. Suddenly, it was like an anvil fell on me from out of nowhere… a deep homesickness hit me in the center of my solar plexus, making me want to cry, something I knew I never wanted anyone to know. Instead, I sank into a prolonged quiet for most of the time I was at Harvey, pushing myself from class to class, day to day. My room was at the end of the school building, on the second floor, with Frank Graves and Tom Marston. A bank of windows looked out on Hawthorne Circle. Sometimes at night, I would watch the cars carrying people to their homes and I wished I could be in one of them at the same time that I enjoyed just daydreaming about the cars and the people, so near to the excitement and possibilities of NewYork City, so close. I felt something of the same wistful longing to be like a day student after sports in the late afternoon when the parents of Day Students would drive into the gravel circle in front of the School House to take those lucky kids home each evening.
