Many people envied the 8th graders for their determination and hard work. You couldn ' t really feel that much superiority over them because they were usually smarter, and you knew they tried harder than most of the others, said junior Tricia Johnston. Yeah, commented Melanie Montoya, They earned their right to be here and that makes some older students jealous. Although the academics seemed to come easy to them, coping with the ridicule sometimes posed a problem. They were occasionally made fun of because they ' re smarter and younger, but I think they put up with it pretty well, said sophomore Sherry Scott. For some of the 8th graders coming to the school for a class gave them a small taste of what high school was all about. It also was a chance to get away from the Lone Hill scene. As one 8th grader Michael Liu put it, The students here are much more outgoing, and have a better sense of humor. Senior Peter Brown said about his eighth grade experience, it was a refreshing change and basically a little more kick- back. Whether the feelings were good or bad about the younger students, one thing was known for sure, that they definitely had an advantage over most. YuTen Kuo said, I ' m a year or two ahead, and I have a chance to go farther. These students brough encouragement to the classes and made the others try harder. They offered their help and quite often they were called upon when no one else knew the answer. They were an inspiration not to be put down, but like Tricia Johnston said, They worked hard to get here and they sould be treated accordingly. Coming up from Lone Hill, eighth grader YuTen Kuo. prepares for the daily lecture in geometry. With a few minutes before class begins, eighth grader Yen Bui looks over her geometry notes.
