It’s More Than A Class; It’s Friends And Family

When I think of my class, the years that we have been together and the memories we’ve made, it makes me smile.

You see, my class is different than the average class. My class has 32 people in it, which has its advantages and disadvantages.

First of all, because we have such a small class, we are able to do many activities that many schools in Spokane cannot. We have had a few all-nighters and bowling parties.

We get together every once in a while to see a movie. We also enjoy going as a class to support our classmates in sporting events.

It is much like a large family: We are all good friends and know all about each other, but still have our occasional disagreements.

When you walk down the hall, you know every face well and are able to tell when someone is mad or unusually sad. I know that I have been encouraged countless times when I’ve been upset and have also been able to help others. It is really amazing how our class comes together for the people who are having problems or injury. We pray every morning for our hurting friends.

This spiritual aspect has had a great deal of influence on the way our class responds to situations and each other. You would think that having a class this small would have disadvantages that outweighed the advantages, but they don’t. It seems that we as a class grow together more every day.
