Special Gifts Given To Special Guests — With Christmas comes the Adopt-A- Child program, which is an annual activ- ity that has been effective for the past four years. Adopt-A-Child is when each first period class adopts a child for one day and buys presents for him her. The Student Council picks the children from the two elementary schools of Pfluger- ville. The classes' adopted child comes to their classroom for about one hour and there the child opens his her presents and has the chance to get to know the students in the room. We have the greatest feeling inside, knowing we are able to give someone something when we don't even know that person, said senior Jackie Emert. Most girls reacted in the same way, but it was really a treat to see the boys act as they did. They were very gentle and careful with the children. I think it's fun. It makes you feel warm inside, replied junior Jody Mar- kert. When asked if he thinks the children who aren't underprivileged were jealous, junior Mike Vasquez said, No, because they (other children) know that they are going to get presents at home, but these children aren't. Kids today are more up with it, so I think they understand, explained sen- ior Michael Moreno. by Leah Blain 1.
