The Homecoming Pep Rally was on Thursday, Sept. 22 in the main gym at Lincoln Southwest.

 

During the pep rally, the cheer teams and the Emeralds performed, and the band performed the school fight song.

 

“They (practices) were good,” senior cheerleader Alexis Bartek said. “They kind of were stressful for a while. We did get the routine about 2-3 weeks ago so we did have a lot of time to practice the routine.”
