Pep Club hosted a special Homecoming Pep Assembly, it’s second pep assembly of the year, at the end of the school day on Thursday. The assembly showcased the 21 senior Homecoming Court nominees. The assembly started with a sumo wrestling class competition, with a final surprise match between Assistant Principal Britt Haney and senior Ben Woods.
