What a fantastic way to wrap up the semester! 🎉 Our JH students celebrated the end of the semester with a well-earned Reward Day and an exciting Battle of the Classes between 7th and 8th grade. Students went head-to-head in an art competition, musical chairs, a unique basketball challenge, and an energetic hula hoop contest. The assembly wrapped up with each class seeing who was the loudest with their class chant and showing off their school spirit! 🏆👏 Congratulations to the 8th grade class for winning the traveling G.O.A.T. Trophy for 1st semester! What an unforgettable day full of fun, teamwork, and school pride. An extra shout-out to our 8th grade Class Officers for organizing the assembly.👏👏 #wildcatpride #strivingforexcellence
