(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I went to Torrance Elementary from Kindergarten until 2nd grade. And then I moved up to Alaska. I miss Torrance Elementary very much. I miss my old friends and teachers. I enjoyed going there and felt safe. One day I'm going to return there as a teacher and give back to the school that made me who I am today!
