SOL Pep Rally

We had a 3rd Grade SOL Pep Rally on Thursday before testing started on Friday.

First we had a former CAES Cardinal and current SHS junior, Lauren Bull, talk to all of our students in the cafeteria about SOL testing and how they're going to do really well.  We've found the "fear of the unknown" is often the biggest issue for our 3rd grade students.



Next we "surprised" the students by taking them next door into the Gym where the Smithfield High Pep Band played several songs to pump up the kids. 


It took a song, but soon the kids were jamming and dancing away!






 Soon, a conga line formed and the kids joined up with the SHS Pep Band





Finally the students went around the CAES Main Square where 2nd Graders were lining the halls giving high fives.
