The juniors came out on top during this year’s Spirit Week, bringing unmatched spirit and teamwork to every event, which paid off by getting us the spirit stick!

Bizzie said she couldn’t have been happier with the theme we were given. At first, she and Molly felt a little nervous about how everything would come together — the decorations seemed like a huge challenge. But once everyone showed up to help, things started clicking into place. “It was amazing to see how each person took on a section and made it their own,” Bizzie said. “When we finally finished, the hallway looked incredible.”

Looking back, Bizzie said this year’s Spirit Week was a major improvement from last year. “We worked so much better as a class this time,” she explained. “It felt like everyone was on the same page, and that made it all the more fun.”

Of course, the dance was one of the toughest parts. The heat made rehearsals exhausting, and getting everyone to focus was a challenge. But Bizzie said the effort was worth it: “Practicing wasn’t easy, but everyone stayed committed. When it all came together, it felt amazing — winning the dance was just the cherry on top.”

Brady agreed that the teamwork made the difference. “Everything leading up to the dance was a lot of fun,” he said. “Our pep reps worked really hard and kept everyone organized. They knew the routine inside and out and did a great job making sure we all stayed on track.”

When our class was announced as the Spirit Stick winner, the energy was electric. Brady remembered that moment vividly: “Hearing our class called felt like everything we’d worked for finally paid off. We’d spent so much time and energy preparing, so celebrating together just felt right.”

Bizzie summed it up best: “Everyone brought so much energy and spirit this year. We worked hard, supported each other, and showed up for our class in every way.” This years Spirit Week for the juniors was full of partnership, celebration, and pride.
