A group of students gets ready before they go and perform to the mass students at the pep rally. The groups excellent display of choreography wowed the students in attendance.

The student classes compete at a game of balloon pop while running back and forth on the basketball court.

The football players fight to pull the flag towards them. Tug-of-war was just one of the games students enjoyed at the pep rally, and it was fun for both sides!

The students laugh as they topple over one another, struggling to win the game.

Ethan Nelson (12) poses for the camera. Nelson enjoyed his time at the pep rally as a band member.

Jolon Harleaux (11) laughs with his friends. The memories students made at the pep rally will last a lifetime.

Students line up to play a game of dance telephone. The student at the start of the line danced a move and the students behind them had to replicate the dance.

Nyllah Allen (12) addresses the gym. She was one of the MCs for the event, and she had a great time introducing games to the students.

Dillon Samson (12) flashes up a "Z" to show his Zachary spirit. As part of the band, Samson enjoyed the energetic, boisterous environment of the pep rally.

The JV Cheerleading squad performs a routine before the pep rally begins. The JV team was one of many teams that helped get the crowd fired up.
