Business not as usual Question: What’s red. blue, green, and yellow and fun all day? Answer: Kennedy’s Blue and White day. Blue and White day is one day in the year when students dress down and have fun. Blue and White day, which takes place during spirit week, is the much awaited battle of the classes. Each class has a certain color assigned to them. Everyone gathered in Tracey Hall and the games began. Tug of war. pass the orange, and the new egg drop game were just a few of the games on the Spirit Day agenda. The senior class triumphed winning the coveted Hawaiian Leis, com- parable to a super bowl ring. Tracey Hall was later set up for Kennedy’s pep rally. The Homecoming Court was announced along with their escorts. The foot- ball. field hockey, and cross country teams were honored and the cheerleaders perform their dance for the student body. The results of the senior class poll, Mr. Irresistable, and Ms. Flirt were an- nounced and Jeff Malazita reigned as the Homecoming King. As the day came to a close everyone was pepped up and ready for the homecoming parade and game. Blue and White day will cer- tainly not be soon forgotten.

Cheering on the Alma Mater -X x The pep rally is anticipated as Kennedy prepares for the Homecoming game. The most sup- ported game of the season, Ken- nedy alumni come out to cheer on their Alma Mater. The pep rally psychs up the school in support of the football team. Although all fall sports teams partake in the rally the football team is the focus. After all Senior players of the sports teams are introduced a pep talk is usually given by the captains of the football team. The peak of the Homecoming preparation would have to be the announcement of the Homecoming King; this year Jeff Malazita won the honor. With crown on head and staff in hand Jeff paraded around the gym with Saints Pride. The tradition had been through many years of Kennedy history that a football s. player would take the crown, but this year the crown was handed to a soccer player, a big step for the newly formed soccer team. After a full day of activities and excitement one would think the Kennedy students would be exhausted, but the students proved them wrong as they went to the Homecoming game in full force — showing their Kennedy spirit. Lauren Guy Suzanne Conner Cheerleaders don’t just cheer at games, they also help decorate the school for major events such as the Pep Rally. 16 Student Life
