Planning for the event was all done by StuCo, with the pep assembly committee contacting groups to perform, hiring a DJ, making the slideshow, holding emcee auditions, planning games and making the assembly come together.

“Planning for the assembly is a lot of work and it has been super stressful, so I am just excited to see everything work and see the student body happy,” StuCo member Aaliyeh Habibi said.

Students are encouraged to dress in their class colors and participate as much as possible in the assembly by volunteering for games or cheering to raise the spirit meter.

“I think it is fun to have the whole school in one place for a common reason, which is just to get excited about our football team, and showing pride in our school,” StuCo sponsor Shelly Parks said.
