Welcome Back Assembly - "Our Time is Now"

Submitted by andrea.pond on

The assembly today was really fun. Most of it was based on High School Musical, but the student government put in some of their own words. My favorite part of the assembly was the basketball song: I love how they did the moves and worked with the basketballs. They didn’t just dribble and throw the basketballs in the air. A part in the dance was a student singing, and, man, can he hit the high notes.
