6 Dear sir, I would like to tell you a little bit about our school. It's a really cool place to go to and I wouldn't give it up for a million. The students are really great and all my friends and I have a chance to get together and goof off all day long. School's a blast! We all get there on the bus about nine and we have a chance to hang out in front of the Student Store and shoot the bull. Lots of kids hang out there during passing per- iods and lunch hours, used to be a hang out all day but they shut it down except during passing periods so nobody skips and goes there. The Store stocks all kinds of goodies like peanuts and lifesavers. I don't think I could get through an hour without something to eat. The best time of the day is the lunch hour. I used to think that it was a real drag, just a half-hour, and closed too! But then me and my friends found out that nobody checks if you leave or not. We go all over town on lunch hours, some- times we get back a little late, but there aren't any bells so if we're not to late nothing happens. Same thing with passing periods, nobody worries about bells and sometimes you're having such a good time your forget to leave. If you're not more than a minute late most teachers won't give you a tardy though, they're real nice. We have a cool library too. It's easy to get passes from study hall and there always lots of kids around. Hardly anybody studies and you can have a great time goofing off. Lots of times we get passes and then skip- out, there are alot of other people doing this to. We sit around, maybe have a smoke, and walk the halls. It's kind of fun looking at your friends who didn't skip — they probably wish they had when they see how much fun we're having. Like I say, our school is really cool. I have met most of my friends there and will always remember the good times we had in high school. Sincerely yours, Joe Student P.S. Oh, we have classes there too.
