Part of living out our school expectation of "Taking Care Of Others" is showing up for your friends when it matters most. It’s easy to be a friend when things are fun, but being a REAL friend requires courage when times get tricky.

Real Friendship in Action

• Speak Up: Courageously tell a friend when you think they are about to make a poor choice.

• Be the Anchor: Help a friend calm down when they are feeling overwhelmed, angry, or upset.

• Know When to Get Help: Recognize when a friend is struggling and reach out to trusted adult to get them support.

• Lead, Don't Just Follow: It is easy to just go along with what your group is doing. But staying silent when a friend is messing up isn't friendship - it's just following. Real friends go against the crowd if it means doing the right thing.

Between now and Fall Break, challenge yourself to be a REAL friend. Don't just follow the crowd - look out for your friends, help them make great choices, and lead by example!
