The Year So Far...


     As I entered my third year of  leadership as a Junior at De Anza High school, my mind is curious as to what lies ahead for this year. So far, only the first quarter of the school year has gone by and yet so much has happened. The first major thing in leadership that we did was our traditional First Rally. In the First Rally, we kicked off the school year with a bang with games, performances, and a whole lot of screaming as everyone was getting pumped for the school year to begin. All in all, the First Rally was a complete success and the incoming freshmen got a taste of what it's like to be a DA Don. 

     The next major events to happen afterwards was Homecoming. Homecoming was, as it usually is, a success. Many students came out to have fun and dance. Although, not everything was perfect because there was a couple of complications that occurred, one being that there was not enough food or drinks, especially water, to satisfy everyone. However, those problems were more or less dealt with accordingly and everyone had a good time. 

     Finally, this following major event is many people's favorite because of the hard work and dedication put into it that truly represents a beautiful and long lasting event at De Anza and that is Float! All four classes competed in trying their absolute best to create the best float out of the theme that was chosen and this year, the theme was Disney.However, a minor complication with the weather forced float to be delayed and pushed back one week. Some count it as a miracle for some precious extra days while others were anxious to have Float to happen. Now for the results! In fourth place came the Freshmen with an amazingly done Stitch surfing float. Up next was the Sophomore's who got third place with a colorful float design of Dumbo. In second place is the Senior class, with a high and mighty Simba for their Lion King float. The class that ended up winning float was the Junior class. This class has been craving for three years to be able to come on top of the senior class and win the trophy that is associated with winning float, which they will be able to design to their liking and will be on display at the front office's trophy case. Overall, Float put on a grand feat and everyone who assisted felt great pride in the hard work that they did and those who watched were amazed by the extraordinary floats.
