The Homecoming pep rally pumped up Chantilly Chargers in preparation for the football game against the Centreville Wildcats on Oct. 10. Fall sports team captains and winning court nominees of each grade walked down the field. For senior court nominees, they announced that winners would be revealed at the game.

Football players and teachers wearing their football jerseys walked together down the field as well. The teachers they chose to walk down the field with were those that they believe made a positive impact on them.

There were grade competitions and Leadership students launched shirts to the crowd. One grade competition was musical chairs with a twist. Students had to run and grab the closest prop to them before racing to a chair before the others. Another being which class could cheer the loudest.

The cheer and dance team had their own performances on the field after students and staff walked down the field as well.

“The pep rally was really fun especially because I got to be on the field and just watch everything happen,” sophomore and leadership student Tanya Munhenga said. “It was cool seeing the dance and cheer team along with seeing all the other sports [team captains] walking down [the field].”
