Redhawk Rally welcomes rising 8th graders and parents
January 30, 2018
Incoming freshman students and their parents got their first major glimpse of the campus as the class of 2022 Monday night from 6-8 p.m. at the school’s Redhawk Rally.
“I feel like we had a great turnout at Redhawk Rally,” counselor Staci Stokes said. “People were overflowing and coming throughout the entire event and some weren’t even able to get a seat, so there were definitely a ton of families there which was really great because they got to hear a presentation, meet teachers and coaches and ask questions.”
One of the programs that featured an overflowing crowd was the two-year GT Humanities course.
“We were a little bit shocked,” Humanities teacher Sarah Wiseman said. “We have 60 seats in our classroom and all of those filled up super quickly and so I went and got two stacks of chairs from the cafeteria and people were still standing at the back of the classroom. I definitely did not anticipate that.”
