Marshall FluhartyMaroon Echoes Reporter From teachers dancing to pie-faced principals, our Monday morning started off far from normal. At nine o’clock students flooded into the Panther gym to select seats for an hour of cheerleader stunts, varsity games, and dancing.
Mr. Wilson and the formative student council, came to the front, purely bubbling. They showed off examples of the homecoming themes for the week. Monday: class colors, Tuesday: “I Woke Up Like This” day, Wednesday: Patriots Day, Thursday: Generations Day, and Friday: is the classic Maroon and Gold day. Each member dressed accordingly to the day as beautiful examples. Next up, the senior volleyball and cross country girls came bounding down to the front, ready for their game of musical chairs. Blindfolded and placed in a circle around some MP sponsored chairs. Chairs were eventually sprawled across the room, and the girls had to wander, only the sound of the stands screaming at them as guides. Our Student Body President, Kenna Smith, came out as the victor in this hysterical game of blind-muical chairs. One of the highlights of the assembly was the teachers' dance, led by Mrs. Cook. She was the choreographer and a new addition to the English department at school. “It was really a challenge,” said Cook. “I’ve never choreographed a dance like this before, I’ve only taken ballroom dance.” Close behind her, Mr. Bjork, Mr. Broeker, and Mr. Lamm were dressed to impress in some cutoff shorts, a flannel, cowboy boots and a hat to match. It was a sight to see as they busted down to an MP version of Old Town Road. Accompanied by the superintendent on drums, Mr. DePriest on keyboard, Mr. Creager played the bass, and Mr. Petterson jammed on his guitar. The crowd was totally shocked and impressed. The senior varsity football and cross country boys were next and placed into blindfolds as well. Placed into groups of two, they were given an animal and once it was called they had to do that animal’s key sound before diving face-first into some snacks. The first to finish was the winning team. Team Cow, Khang Truong and Levi Mills won by drinking all their milk. The assembly concluded with the Pie-the-Principal fundraiser. Both Mr. Liechty and Mr. Wilson were prepared to be terribly pied in the face. For a donation, students and staff were given the opportunity to throw cream at their favorite administrators. “This’ll be fun,” said Mr. Wilson as he placed a bag over his crisp outfit. Mr. Liechty came in with some bags of his own, covered head-to-toe. Mrs. Wagler and Mr. Rogers got first picks at who to pie first. Then one freshman got two pies, Justin Stiner, who got in plenty of trouble for breaking the one rule; no whipped cream on the floor. After that, a few more students pied the principal.
