Lunch is also a favorite time to visit. nseparable Inseparable: incapable of being separated or disjoined. — Merriam-Webster Dictionary. Such was the relationship between teenage friends. One was never seen without the other. They planned outfits together; sometimes they even had a crush on the same person. Friends were inseparable in class and on the weekends. Whether they celebrated at a birthday party or sobbed over the phone about a hardship, friends stuck together. Friend- ships were especially important to the seventh graders as they adjusted to their new environ- ment. “It meant I wasn’t starting out alone,’’ commented seventh grader Lauren Sease. Friendships were also im- portant to upperclassmen. Seniors realized that some of their kindergarten-to-twelfth- grade relationships might come toa halt. They began to make the most of their classroom buddies. “It’s hard to believe that the people you have seen almost every day for twelve years will no longer be a part of your daily routine.’”’ said Teresa Burks, senior. Friendships were found ina11 grades throughout the school every day. Teachers gossiped in the lounges while students hung out in the halls. Even teacher-student relationships were prevalent. Whether it was two freshmen in the high school or two seniors together at graduation, friend- ships were always an important part of school. — Amy Fellers am caleidieaniaaiaaaaaaaml — ceciemmieaaaiaanill won tiene one i cenemeaidmammamaael omen Sniadaiimmaamaale Rica “Well I think . .
