NOVEMBER BETTER TOGETHER
6th grade Julia and Narai find encouragement, laughter, and fun times through each other. Here is their story…
I met Julia in third grade and we became close during recess. We discovered we both liked Harry Potter and decided to film a movie that would continue the series.
Julia is caring, energetic, and weird in a wonderful way! She is always kind and encourages me to be my best self. She always is there for me and helps me reach my goals.
Our friendship exists outside of school too. We go to each other's houses and have many sleepovers. Julia and I both love to write and we are writing a book together.

I met Narai in third grade. We became friends because we were both going to be in a play together. Because of this, we spent a lot of time in each other’s company and soon became friends.
I would describe Narai as funny, strong-willed, and a person who would stand up for you! She cheers me up and is always encouraging me when I am struggling.
After school, we have a lot of sleepovers and get dinner together. She and I share a love of books (often reading the same ones) and write a lot too.
