If You Really Knew Me is a reality show on MTV that focuses on teen life and different cliques. It helps the teens get to actually know their peers by each person telling something personal about themselves. In the show, students from each clique participate in Challenge Day, a program that’s meant to break down stereotypes and connect the students.

A program like this would strongly benefit a small school like ours. We all stay in our group of friends and never really get to know the students outside of our circle. This program would help to stop all the judging and put an end to bullying. Even if we don’t get the actual staff to come to PCHS, maybe we could take a day and just make one for ourselves. It may not be as perfectly constructed as the television show, but at least it would be a step in the right direction.
