Academic Pep Assembly Preview
March 5, 2015
The annual spring Academic Pep Assembly is only one week away. It will be held on Tuesday, March 10 during school.
“This year specifically I think that kids can look forward to a lot more entertainment-wise and so it’ll be a little bit more bearable because reading names takes a long time. I think this is going to be way more entertaining,” junior Renaissance Student Steering Committee member Callahan McAndrew said.
According to Renaissance Student Steering Committee sponsor Michele Rodgers, there will also be student skits and multiple groups performing at the assembly.
“The theme is LouTube Rewind, like Louie the Lancer, which is based off of the YouTube rewinds that are kind of popular right now,” Rodgers said.
The Academic Pep Assembly is held to honor National Merit students, Bright Flight students, the academic leaders in each class, most-improved students from all grades, Students of the Month, Staff Persons of the Month, Teacher of the Year finalists and the Teacher of the Year.
There will be no change to the order of classes, but 1st Hour through 4th Hour will be 42 minutes long and 5th Hour through 7th Hour will be 40 minutes long instead of the usual 49 minute classes. Lunches are the same length and classes will be over for the day at 2:17 p.m.
The assembly will start at 1:12 p.m. and will go until 3:05 p.m. when school ends for the day. There will be no bells for 7th Hour or the assembly.
![To determine the Undefined team for next year, junior team captains Evan Sommer and Payton Skipton, along with drama teacher Michael Swindle, hold after school auditions.
“One of the biggest things we look at during auditions is how well they can work with each other,” Skipton said.
Undefined put up flyers with QR codes for interested students, as well as Lafayette’s show choir group, Mic Drop.
With a dance and vocal component for the audition, Mic Drop held mandatory dance clinics after school.
“The actual audition is just a submission,” music teacher Christy Shaffer said.
Mic Drop holds auditions and dance clinics for three consecutive days, according to Shaffer.
“[The dance clinics are held] so they could see it in-person and break down. Then they can take that home to practice and do their recordings.” Shaffer said.
