As school let out on Friday, August 2, students headed over to the east lawn at Rock Island High School for some fun!
Every year the high school hosts "Rally at the Rock", a way to welcome students back to school, but also let them know about the activities that are available for them at the high school.
Sports teams and clubs had tables set up outside so students could learn more about then and how they could join. The Rock Island Booster Club was also on-site, handing out hotdogs, chips, and water.
Students got a performance from the Rock Island High School cheerleaders and marching band.
And, it isn't a party without games, there was a friendly competition of tug of war. Congrats to the Freshmen students who beat the sophomores and to the cheerleaders for beating the football players.
