nergy nthusiasm Xuberanee A Description of Pep Rallies. Bebe Montgomery, Spanish teacher, stood with a look of distress as she watched Dominic Cuellar, senior, walk toward her with a pie in his hand. As the crowd cheered Dominic on, he threw the pie in her face. At this pep rally, teachers who lived in Lancaster- - the home city of the opposition that Friday night- - received a pie in the face by the class that won the spirit contest. Each teacher picked one student from the senior section to throw their pie. The senior section won the spirit contest. Other than participating in the pie throwing, teachers showed their spirit by performing skits that defeated out opponents. They also performed a rap cheer to encourage the Hawks to win. Teachers set examples for students to increase school pride and spirit. Teachers liked to have fun at pep rallies, but most of the team and the student body deserved teachers who were willing to participate in activ- ities, Don Powers, science teacher, said. Many costumes were worn in pep rallies. Freshmen wore balloon hats while seniors wore paper sack hats. Some students even painted their faces maroon and white. lf students did not have costumes, they always had signs and confetti. Every pep rally, I saw someone wearing something different. It really made a class look spirited when they all had on the same costumes, Roxie Luna, junior, said. The last pep rally was the traditional senior pep rally. After the senior dance, the seniors acted out a skit of their school years and then gathered to sing the school song. I'm glad we got to have a pep rally for every game. It really helped boost enthusiasms, Stacey Hayner, senior, said. WITH PAINTED FACES, the juniors won many spirit awards in pep rallies. Seniors wore paper hats and freshmen wore ballooms. 14 STUDENT LIFE CHEERING Performing a cheer at a pep rally is Stephan Hayner, sophomore. She was a .IV cheerleader. This was her first year. I A
