Newspaper
To the Freshmen
by Tommy Burns


 As the 2006-2007 school year begins we have a new freshmen class here to join the Valley Christian High School family. As most of us know the freshmen advice column usually comes out in the first issue of the schools newspaper. As an experienced senior I have seen the "Ins and Outs" of high school here. Some things I have found are: Be sure to stay away from the senior line/parking lot/seating section. It isn't where you should find yourself. Be sure to treat your freshmen mentor the way you would want to be treated when you get the chance to give back to the freshmen class your senior year. If you have any further questions concerning this issue be sure to consult The "D."

Here at Valley Christian High School the student body is allowed to wear sandals as shoes. So in order to avoid getting blisters on your feet, be sure to wear knee socks with them. Even though sandals are allowed, be sure to pick up a pair of Heelies. Heelies are great they help you get around campus quickly without breaking the no run policy stated in the student handbook.

Using a locker is never a good idea. It wastes valuable time during passing period. The best way to stay prepared for class, but always on the go, would to be carrying all your books in your backpack. For this reason alone a backpack equipped with wheels that light up would be best for your back, and light the path in front of you. A hot after-school hang out is the library; it's cool in there. They have a fresh copy of the daily newspaper always on hand. A lot of book reading and socializing goes on in there. If you have anything you want to type or just type with friends, this would be the ideal place to do it.

If there is one piece of information you take out of this article, I would want it to be, make the best of your high school career. It passes by very fast and the memories you have in high school, you will remember for the rest of your life. So get involved in your school, get involved in your class. Be sure to make friends and be sure to make the most of your high school experience.
