The festivities kicked off with a welcome speech by the Glenholme Student Council President, followed by an impressive rendition of the National Anthem by the Men’s Singing Group. The Spirit Squad Captain then addressed the crowd: “The Spirit Squad helps the school as a community. We bring school spirit to the basketball games by rallying the team with our cheers and support. Today, we wish them luck as they head into a big tournament weekend.” The Pep Rally, held on Wednesday, February 1, 2012, marked the midway point of the Grizzlies’ basketball season, and took place a few days before the Grizzlies competed in a weekend tournament – from which they emerged victorious!

Glenholme community building events create a positive learning environment, foster strong friendships, and improve students’ commitment to the school and their education. The Winter Pep Rally, which has become a much-loved Glenholme tradition, continues to grow each year. In the words of the Student Council President: “School pride is important. So when it comes to our school: stand tall, be loud, and be proud.”
