The gym roared in awe as the seniors were defeated by the juniors at the pep rally on Nov. 2. It was usually a given that the seniors would win, but this year the tug-of-war match took a turn, and the teachers won.

“It was annoying that we got knocked out, but it was exciting to be at one of my last pep rallies and enjoy it with my friends and see them be a part of the activities. I realized that this might be one of my last times together with my class, and the thought of leaving behind my friends and teachers is sad,” senior Isabela Lanfranchi said.

around the gym, adding to the overall energy. Because the juniors beat the seniors, they were knocked right out of the mix. Then, the juniors competed against the teachers. Ultimately, the teachers won the entire tug-of-war competition.

“Being a part of student government allows us to make the pep rallies more fun, and it makes it more fun for Student Government, because we always help them,” senior Johanna Ernsberger said.
