Around our friends we can be JUST OURSELVES One of the good things about Archer City High is that we are able to just be ourselves. We don't have to try to impress anyone because they accept us just the way we are. They put up with our faults and recognize our strengths. We can be happy and crazy one day or sad and depressed the next day; but whatever the situation, our friends are there to share our joys or to help u: disappointments. s through our The time my friends helped me out the mosi c was when I hurt my neck in a scrimmage against Petrolia. Knowing that I'd be out nearly all season, I didn't know if I was going to make it. All the things that my friends did for me at that time kept me going and 1 owe a lot to them, said junior Shannon Sternadel. One of my favorite times with my friends is the time we have between or during classes to share our day and some laughs, said senior Teresa Mooney. My classmates are always there when I need them, said freshman Mandy Lewis. 1 can always count on them when 1 can't anyone else. They help me understand things when I'm not seeing things very clearly, said fresh- man Christi Derrick. The sense of security that we get from our friends gives us the confidence we will need to ac- complish goals in life and also gives us a feeling of self worth. This feeling of camaraderie is not found among many student bodies and we feel this makes Archer a special place.

ANOTHER SMALL TOWN SCHOOL Themes for yearbooks do not just happen. There is usually no bolt of lightning, no vision from beyond. Themes evolve from countless hours of brainstorming sessions and staff arguments. No one remembers exactly how the idea for the 1989 yearbook came about. Perhaps someone said that we wanted to show we’re not just another little school, or perhaps prove that small towns do have special things going for them. But, all of that really doesn’t matter. What does matter is that students here feel that our town and our school are special. And THEY are the reason that it is true. People are what it is all about. Special people make this a special town. By thoughtlessly calling us hicks” and saying that we live in Hick Town”, USA, some outsiders insinuate that we are devoid of any form of intelligence and reside in some remote corner of the world. But, we're proud of our town’s location and its size, and we’re not a “bunch of country bumpkins.” Archer may not be a thriving metropolis with thousands of hustling, bustling people but we kind of like it that way. One of the good things about small towns is that everyone knows just about everyone else. And, although that does sometimes have its draw- backs, most of the time it works to our advantage. In a small town, you never have to be alone; a friend is never far away. That’s why we stay here, the comfort and safety of a small town simply can’t be surpassed. With the Dallas Fort Worth area only two hours away, and Wichita Falls just thirty minutes up the highway, why would we feel left out of the mainstream? We can visit them any time, without abandoning that sense of security that we thrive on, and without becoming “stressed out by the worries of life in a big city. All in all, we are happy here and we think our educational system cannot be equaled. Yes, we definitely feel that Archer City is not just another small town school. opening 3
