This was a very common chanf echoed throughout the cluttered gym¬ nasium during o pep rally. Hun¬ dreds of students pocked the bleachers and yelled at the top of their lungs. Pep rallies were held on Fridays during sixth periods before big gomes to promote school spirit. However, pep rallies were not only to build school spirit but also class spirit. At each roily there was a class competition held. In the competitions each class, inspired by cheerleaders representing their class or grade level, attempted to yell the loudest. The class which won received the spirit boton until the next pep rally. All Hyped-Up A major role in pep rallies, along with the cheerleaders, was ployed by the bond. The bond contained some of the most spirited people in the school with their original ond sometimes funny costumes along with their music, the bond kept the spirit olive. A new aspect of a pep roily wos introduced where the bond would gather in the front lobby before school to ploy music while the cheerleaders cheered. This inspired ond en¬ couraged students to attend the gome being held that evening. The most classy spirit. Varsity cheerleaders triumphantly accept the spirit flag won by the senior class. 10 Student Life
