reshmen Srors and Srripes pledge allegiance to the flag of thie United States of America . . . Do you ever feel that in the morning when you arrive in class you are missing a daily ritual? Something you always used to do, but haven ' t done lately? For years you went to school and stood up for the pledge of allegiance, the pledge to your country that took you so long to learn. Now it is rarely If saying the pledge was a school policy, I would be glad to say it - Kelly Bruce. even used anymore! It ' s been so long since I ' ve said it that I had trouble remembering the words, said freshman Liz La Coste. Some feel that they have missed say- ing the pledge, while others are glad they don ' t have to say it anymore. I kind of missed saying the pledge of allegiance, it seemed like something was missing, said sophomore Bob Fa- jardo. To me It didn ' t matter if we said the pledge. It was like a daily ritual, said junior Mimi Miller. kind of missed saying the pledge of allegiance. — Bob Fajardo. Saying a jumble of words may not mean much, but to some it means a lot. Also understanding the words said and knowing what they mean is different than saying it because you had to. To me the pledge meant that you honor your country, said junior Teresa Sung. Even though the pledge wasn ' t said very often some felt that the meaning still remained in their heart . . . witfi li- berty and justice for all.

reshmen ' ■r i J ' »? :- End of rhe year bye ' s TO SENIORS It ' s one of those things that we really don ' t think about at the beginning of the school year, but towards the end, it gets sad. Most of us have experienced It every year, but others will never have It happen to them. But what would you do If one of your best friends was graduat- ing and leaving you to finish school by yourself? It was very common among the stu- dent body. A lot of underclassmen were likely to have seniors as friends, steady dates or vice versa. But It was some- thing about having an older friend that made high school more fun, except of course, being left alone after they graduated. We really don ' t think about how It will be without our senior friends right now, but I guess things will change after they ' re gone, said Kim Weeks. It was seen and heard every day of the week throughout the school year. A couple of freshman girls would be talk- ing about how different school woul d be We really don ' t think about how it will be without our sen- ior friends, right now. — Kim Weeks during the next year without their best friend. They would no longer indulge in conversations at lunch, short gossips during breaks and note passing in classes together. Along with that, the 0I» p. freshman girls would no longer partici- pate in the activities their friend always talked them into doing. It ' s neat hanging around with soph- omores and juniors because you can get them into the school spirit that sen- iors get into, said senior Tina Ryker. It was towards the end of the year when the disadvantages became ap- parent and one had to make the best of the school year. Many students have admitted that being best friends with older classmates is a great advantage, both during school and after. It ' s an advantage when you ' ve got older friends because you get to do more things, said Lori Cox. Besides, transportation is never a problem. story by Michelle Garay: layout by Dee Honda.
