Meeting lots of kids from the town and the rural areas, I can say unequiv- ocaliy that we have some great young adults living in Whitchurch-Stouffville. Being the recipient of our teenagers' Yes, life is good for most kids, and the sound of Dylan happily singing Blinded by the Light rang through my office at the train station as they wait, ed for a bus to take them to Toronto. Tanned and happy, these guys have had a great summer that they wish could go on foreyer. Local youths Dylan Gott, l7. of Stouffville and lames Gaston. I7, of Ballantrae say boredom is a killer and things for youth to do are limited, which makes for restless teens. Boring it may be, but when reminded of school, lames says he could live with the boredom. Constantly ringing phones will miraculously become silent and the sound of bored, bickering siblings will seem like a bad dream. Adults can stop worrying about their heads exploding. as they are saved by the bell heralding the return of school. Yes, kids make the world go round, but they can also make heads spin. Think September and you think 'kids. with a grin. when the first day of school arrives and the last lunch bag leaves the house, calming quiet will descend and sanity will prevail. Not a whisper of a computer game or TV show will be heard. Loud, pounding. bass-heavy MuchMusic, Yo Baby, You Da One songs will no longer fill the domain known as home. Think summer and you think kids. with a sigh. IIIIaI Reflections A Different School of Thought And remember. think fall, think freedom. Yours! Last fall teens practised singing and dancing for hours so that they could entertain seniors at their Christmas party. Bad kids no, great kids yes. So pack those lunches and try to bite back that smile, because school is right around the comer. and that's where the young ones will be. When the day arrived I was overâ€" whelmed by the kids from Musselman's Lake. Stouffville and elsewhere, who banded together to help a friend. These are the same kids who leave notes saying hello on my desk, and on one blistering hot day. a cold bottle of water awaited my return to the office. Another time I came back to discover my office had been cleaned and tidied up, with the floor washed and everything left in order. I mentioned this to some students who dropped by to say hello, and then forgot about it. Soon after, I received a call saying the word had been spread and more than a dozen kids rallied around, putting aside their own plans to help me out. Putting on events needs helping hands and l have always counted on the SDSS student volunteers to lend those hands‘ During the summer break. however, I was sure I would not have enough helpers. kindness and consideration on count- less occasions, I just want to tell you about the kids I know. Yes, they are loud and boisterous,but they are bubbling over with life and energy, and that's wonderful.
