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.
