How About Those All-School Pep Rallies? by Chris Ashbrook, Upper School Head

All-School Pep Rallies are the perfect time to take a break from our rigorous curriculum and simply yell and scream support of the Spartans.  Our younger students get us all fired up with their love of the high school teams and their unbridled enthusiasm.  They start making noise which in turn makes the Middle School students make noise which then leads to the Upper School students making sure that they make the most noise.  It is always loud and lots of fun.  I know that the student athletes we are recognizing always feel supported and important.  What a thrill! We take the time to recognize athletic participants from preschool to our varsity teams and it is amazing to realize that nearly every student at the school is participating in something during any given season. 

The times where we come together as an entire school to celebrate are indeed precious.  The students thrive on one another’s positive energy and we are all proud to be a part of the Collegiate family.  Whether in the amphitheater, the football stadium, the gym, or the quad, all of our students can’t help but enjoy the opportunity to come together as one and celebrate.
