The United States Marine Corps Recruiting Service set up a recruiting station today in the main cafeteria. Students lined up to take turns doing pull-ups, and whoever successfully completed 20 received a t-shirt. Senior Oscar Ngugi attempted, but could not complete the challenge. “The first ten or so were easy, but I got really tired and I couldn’t do any more,” Ngugi said.

Drop down and give me 20…pull-ups

Mr. Evans’ AP Environmental Science class learned about ocean acidification through a demo lab. Students discovered how the acidification process worked underwater by blowing carbon dioxide into seawater. The carbon dioxide in their breath reacted with a chemical in the water and changed its color.

APES, you blow me away!

NC Marching Band members prepare for the annual Cobb Exhibition happening later tonight. Junior Vicki Zitsch studies the schedule, as she mentally plans out how to finish all her homework before arriving to the event. “Cobb Exhibition is really cool. They split it into two days where half of the marching band performs on the first day, and the other half performs on the second day. You get to go and watch other school’s marching bands perform, and then we’re going to perform our own marching band show in front of judges who give us feedback on how we can improve,” Zitsch says.

Students dressed up in either their rags or riches for homecoming week. Students who dressed in rags dressed their worst, while students who dressed in riches dressed their best to impress. Students wore pajamas or old, messy clothes or wore fancy clothes or “gangster-rich” just like rappers.

Worst of the worst or best of the best?

From yellow posters to gold T-shirts, students showed their support for Rally Club, an organization that raises awareness for childhood cancer. “Rally is a club that donates money to not only raise awareness for childhood cancer, but also to raise money for the research,” senior Brittany Aguilar said. In the past, the club gradually declined, until recently when senior Cierra Walsh brought it back to life. As a foundation, Rally hopes to promote awareness for childhood cancer through fundraisers and overall support of the community, and through their determination, members will keep the club alive and prospering.

Come support RALLY!
