text: That's really rough, I was in a similar situation in the 8th grade.  I had gone to public school and then switched to a Christian school.  It was hard cuz I left my best friends there, and I did lose touch with most of them.  I see a few of them once in a while now.  We talk cordially, but our lives went in completely different directions - I'm glad about that too, they're all 21-22 with kids.  I guess my best advice to you would be to be nice - say hi, be like - hey we should do something sometime and catch up.  Ya know, just play it cool like it doesnt' really matter either way.  Good luck!!!
