Several kids are into volleyball or video games or church. Lunch, many say. Come fall, they'll be fused together in a virtual world that's seeming less and less distant with every high school commencement ceremony. They were interested, but their parents weren't. They thought that it's not a real school, just a way to get out early.
Several students are cheerleaders.
There's a handful of football and baseball players and about a dozen who belong to the drama club. Like many from this part of the country, which is rich in citrus orchards, quite a few students participate in the 4-H Club and Future Farmers of America. That's a big reason kids go to school. Or at least why they love to go. Copyright 2000 Associated Press .
