Best Friends Reunite After Months Apart At New Private School

This is a screenshot of a wholesome social media post. The accompanying text explains that the poster enrolled their son in private school, leaving the boy deeply upset about having to leave his best friend Barrett. Three months after the son started at his new school, his class welcomed a new student who turned out to be Barrett. The attached photo shows two young boys in a school hallway: the poster's Black son looks happily at his friend Barrett, a white boy who is grinning widely with both hands raised near his head in obvious excitement about the reunion. An exit sign and fire alarm are visible on the wall behind the pair.
