Once we traded places at school in the third grade, Brian said. There was a boy in Brent's class named Briang and when the teacher called out Brian's name, Brian Upton answered. I forgot I was supposed to be Brent, and we both got sent to the principal's office, Brian added. They had fun trying to confuse people with their names when together. We switched chairs in Mr. jim Boyd's literature class, but he never knew. It was pretty funny because the whole class knew what was going on, Brent said. Some say that they don't look anything alike, but I can't tell them apart, senior Kim Garrison said. We have a lot of fun together doing crazy things, and that makes us friends as well as identical brothers, Brent said. FRIENDSHIP 4

A possible suicide caused one senior girl to break a promise to a friend and seek help for this person. I lost her trust for a while, but I still felt good about it since I'd really helped, she said. Coming home at 3 a.m. one Saturday morning made one junior's parents a little less than happy, but helping a friend whold been drinking was her first priority. That was more important than having angry parents, she said. I explained it all to them in the morning, and they weren't too mad. After all, I was just being a friend. ,AAA4-4...

I admire what they were trying to accomplish. Hopefully, what happened will not discourage the idea of improving education, senior Brian Morris said. This was a historic first flight because it was to carry a civilian in space.
