EMF Pep Rally for State Volleyball

There was a pep rally on Wednesday in Friend with the entire student body of Exeter-Milligan and Friend.  The cheerleaders planned the event and everyone had a great time getting the Lady Bobcats pumped up for their first state volleyball game on Thursday.

The Dance team combined with the cheer team for a number and then introductions were made.

Mr. Matt Nicholas interviewed the three senior volleyball players with some fun questions and got lots of laughs from the audience.  Apparently Keila Ricenbaw doesn't mind sharing the court with little sister Miley.

The band played several numbers before there was a rally which included participants from the audience.  A balloon had to be batted down the length of the gym to a team member to relay it back.  Each team had a volleyball player, a high school student, a junior high student and an elementary student.

Each varsity volleyball team member had chosen a favorite teacher or coach to buddy up with them in the next game.  They had to keep the volleyball up in the air between them.  It got close at the end but Kaydence Hasse and Mrs. Arbuck were the winners.

The cheerleaders sent four beach balls out into the crowd for them to keep afloat before the had a eight students come down and get blindfolded.  They were spun around once they were blindfolded and the audience had to help them find a dollar bill placed on the gym floor.

The cheer and dance team performed one more time before Mrs. Stutzman encouraged the girls to bring home a championship banner and the students and parents to bring home the sportsmanship banner.

What Do Our Body Systems Do?

By Ashley Arbuck, Exeter-Milligan Third Grade Instructor

 

The 3rd grade class is enjoying learning about the different systems in our body during their CKLA reading unit! They have been working hard on writing paragraphs using the information from their text, making sure they have a topic sentence and a concluding sentence.  Making a classroom book informing our readers about the body systems was a great way to show what we know!
