The middle school thematic unit kicks off with this story of a kid navigating social media in 2006 during the summer before high school starts. What were the top social media used in 2006? They get into multilingual households, sibling drama, AOL Instant Messenger, a gay mom with cancer, Joan Chen, skateboarding in the 1970s, mother-in-laws, kissing lessons, Ronnie tries the nervous game with Justin, and a resurrected squirrel. Oh and Ronnie catfished a principal once following him around a Barnes and Noble. 

Exit ticket: What if you're an internet influencer and also a teacher? A Redditor’s principal wants this influencer to quit that gig or quit teaching. What’s the line between freedom of expression and being in public education?
