For some high school students, transitioning to a new school can be scary and unfamiliar. Some feel alone while others can’t feel this way because their siblings are right down the hall.

Senior Lauren Barker is one of the many students that has a sibling at THS. Fortunately, she and her brother, sophomore Noah Barker, have a good relationship.

“It’s not weird seeing my brother at the same school as me because I love him so much,” said Lauren.

They may not see each other often, but it is still nice to know he is in the same building as her.

“I do not have any classes with my brother sadly, but he does great on his own,” she said.

Senior Ricky Pritchett has a younger brother in 10th grade, as well. He doesn’t think anything of seeing his brother at the same school.

“It’s not weird seeing my brother. I even had one class with him last semester,” said Ricky.

Senior Hunter Scarce is another student whose sibling is a sophomore, but they do not cross paths very often.

“I don’t see Cassidy much around school,” said Scarce.

Senior Dylan Gee, sophomore Zach Childress, and sophomore Kayley DeVivi have freshmen siblings.

“I have never had a class with my sister, Megan, but I do drive her to school every day,” said Gee.

“It’s not weird at all seeing Abigail at school,” said Childress.

While it may be hard at first to go to school with siblings, students agree that it is a blessing in disguise.

“It was weird seeing Kade around school at first, but now it feels like I am missing something if he is not there,” said DeVivi.
