His name is Dr. Mi- chael Dulick and unless he's been your teacher, there's a stony about him that you probably don't know. Since 1977 Dr. Dulick has spent sum- mers in Central America in Los Vegas, Hon- duras, a small village with a population of less than 1,000. Dr. Dulick doesn't teach the village children, l'They don't need peo- ple to tell them what to do, theyjust need understanding, said Dr. Dulick. When l go down to Los Vegas, l really learn from them. They also show me how materialistic Americans are. Here they are with almost nothing, dirt roads, no electric- ity or running water. lt's very primitive, yet they're happy. So l go down to share, not solve. l wish l could live there and l hope that someday l'lI be able to take a few stu- dents with me so that they can also exper- ience that type of a culture.

They role-played being at a party to practice saying no to pressures to drink or take drugs. Writing dovm 10 important things in their life, and ex- plaining how they would feel if they had to take some of those important things away, was a favorite activity for the peer teachers. l'Peer teaching helped the 7th grad- ers realize that they weren't alone with their feelings about growing up, said Junior Stephanee Greenwood. 76fPeE:rT ' T.-.L-'
