The All-School Rally

During Science, the students read for SSR. Instead, Alex, making up for the work he missed, decides to go English homework without being suspected. After SSR, Miss Molly collected homework. She notices Alex's handwriting and claims it as incomplete due to rushing. "Alex, what is this?" Ms. Molly asked. "Homework" Alex said, "I finished it at home." he also added. "I believe I will have to give you minus points for doing it in class." she said. Daniel informed Alex that he still got credit, but not full credit.

"Okay, let's turn to page 107 of our textbook" Mrs. Molly told the class. They were doing Glossary terms for Lesson 8. They got out a sheet of paper and they copied down the terms. Alex decided to rush through the work and get his completed before everyone was done.

"There" Alex said, "My work here is done".

When the bell rang, the school was dismissed for the rally. It took place on the Football Field due to repainting the School's Gym. The theme for the rally was Battle of the Sexes. The bleachers were divided into genders (Boys on Home Side, and Girls on Visitors Side) for those to sit in. Before the rally started, Alex and Daniel tried to find seating. Mrs. Richardson, also the head leader of the Student Council program at the school, started the school rally. She even claimed that the School Choir will sing the National Anthem at this rally. Everyone in this school stood up for the singing of the Anthem, and the school choir sang:

Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming

And the rockers' red glare, the bombs bursting in air Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there

O say, does that star spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave

After the anthem ended, students took their seats and the rally began with the tournaments of Double Dutch Jump Rope. Rose, Bess and Anna volunteered for the Girls, while Manuel, Noah, and Jeff all volunteer the Boys. The girls prevail when they lasted longer than the boys.
