What an amazing pep rally we had today for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders! The Georgia Milestones test is coming up and we are ready to crush it! 📝 We had special guests at the rally including the Macon Bacon mascot and Knitro the Knight, who brought so much energy to the event! 🏆 Batman and Robin were our emcees for the day, keeping us pumped up and ready to go! We played some awesome games during the rally, including tug of war and hippity hop bouncer challenges. The million word readers even took on the teachers in a competition on the bouncers - who do you think won? 🤔 And let's not forget the hula hooping contest between teachers and students, it was so much fun to watch! 🤩 We're ready to do our best on the Georgia Milestones test next week, thanks to this amazing pep rally! Let's go team! 🚀 #GeorgiaMilestones #PepRally #SchoolSpirit #KnitrotheKnight #MaconBacon #BatmanAndRobin #TugOfWar #HippityHop #HulaHoopContest #GoTeam #CrushIt
