WHS students celebrate the day before Thanksgiving with an all school Spirit Day and Pep Rally on Wednesday, Nov. 27 in the WHS field house. WHS students compete in various competitions to gain points for their grade. The grade that won the most points this year was the class of 2025, so they were the overall winner of Spirit Week. Leading up to Spirit Day, grades had some opportunities to gain points through Color Blast and the Thanksgiving Food Drive. Every day of Spirit Week, there were psyches, which were groutfit and express your culture. On Spirit Day, students wore their classes color to show support for their grade, which included green for the freshman, blue for the sophomores, red for the juniors and orange and black for the seniors.

"[Twist and Shout] is one of my favorite songs, and with the amount of vocal harmony it has I figured it would be good for A Capella," Hammond said. "[Twist and Shout] has pretty simple rhythms and awesome energy, which fits the vibe of the T-Tones. I arranged the song basically identical to how it is written, because I think the guitar riff, bass riff and the harmonies are all excellent as well as easy to sing."](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/8E057B61-9507-4115-811F-93F1FB6F7EB4_1_105_c.jpg)
