Cheer hosted a pep rally to celebrate the beginning of volleyball’s district season on Friday, September 27, 2024. The theme for the pep rally was minions (we want bananas) to tie in with the volleyball program’s theme ‘hungry.”
They played games including relay races to see who could pop the balloon on each other the fastest. They had four teams with four people from each grade in them. The freshmen included Grayson Commander, Roy Sims, Ryan McCarthy and Brandon Davis. The sophomore team included Mia Villalobos, Fallon Payne, Alleigh Howard and Kamry Wall. The junior team included Jaden Wilson, Trapper Murdock, Beau Bryant and Austin Smith. Lastly, the senior team was Molly Bowlin, Marley Moody, Riley Horn and Hallie Flynn. The sophomore girls won against all the other teams.
Along with the game, student council hosted a pieing teachers in the face fundraiser. Any student who wanted to participate bought a ticket to join the raffle and could donate money to the teacher they wanted to pie. Three students got to pie Mr. Cox, and three pied Dr. Coker. All the money the students put towards tickets went towards StuCo.
The band ended the pep rally by playing the fight song while the cheerleaders performed.
