Once upon a time there was an Antioch School student who grew up and went to college. When he was getting ready to move into his dorm, he found out that his beloved ball python Juniper wouldn't be allowed to stay there with him. He brought her to the Antioch School art and science room where she could stay safe and sound while he was away at college. The Antioch School children had mixed feelings about her arrival! Many were excited, happy and curious. A few were trepidatious. After asking lots of questions, getting to see her up close, and getting to feel her scales for themselves, everyone who was feeling unsure felt much more at ease.
