Students at Plymouth High School were recently questioned on their feelings of having siblings at the same school as them. Some students tell of how they like it and others, not so much.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is a scientific fact that siblings may be the same in the terms of looks, but their personalities are far from the same. \u00a0When asked about their feelings of sharing a school with their siblings, 40% of students from PHS said that they enjoyed it, 40% said that they did not like it, and 20% said that it did not matter to them. Sophomore Katy Corsaw, whose brother Nathan is currently a freshman at PHS, said, \u201cI like it because if someone is picking on him, than I can confront them.\u201d When asked if Corsaw would want to transfer to a different school to avoid being with her brother, she tells the Pilgrim Perspective<\/em> that she would rather stay here, and continue attending PHS.<\/p>\n

Senior Ali Rust tells of her experiences with her younger sister, Megan who is one school year behind her. She explains her feelings of the past 3 years at PHS with her sister Megan, shortly behind her. Ali says \u201cI like to be able to see her during the day. \u00a0It is a good pick me up and I know that no matter what happens, there is always someone who loves me in my school.\u201d Rust also tells the Pilgrim Perspective<\/em> that if she had the choice to stay and attend PHS or transfer to another school, she would stay at Plymouth.<\/p>\n

One of PHS\u2019 set of twins, born 2 minutes apart, Seniors Alison and Matthew McGrory say that they do not mind being in the same school as their sibling. Alison said she likes being in school with her twin brother because she can point at him and say \u201cLook, there’s my twin!\u201d Even though she thinks that no one believes her. When asked if she would want to continue attending PHS or transfer to get away from her twin brother, Alison says \u201cI would stay at Plymouth. We can go through the joys and difficulties together and it makes us closer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even though many siblings do not get along, PHS students have shown us that they do indeed enjoy their siblings, and being at the school with them. They show that Plymouth is a close knit community and the rising generation is going to make a difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
