Did you watch Star Wars when you were younger? Well, what if I told you that Star Wars came to life at this year’s Welcome Back Assembly 2015 "May The Force Be With You"?!? You probably wouldn’t believe me, but if you were there, you would understand what I’m talking about! This year, the Highlands Intermediate Student Council transformed the gym into none other than the Star Wars Universe. Giant lightsabers were on display, as well as a massive Death Star space battle scene straight out of the movies! The crowd was really pumped up and loved the two performances, one by Diverse Art Dance Studio and the other by Frank DeLima! Just when you thought it was over, each team went insane during the Team Cheer Competition where Na Koa (Ewoks) proved to be the loudest!!! As DJ Packo slammed sick beats, the Jedis from each Team mastered their skills in the Jedi Training Academy with our very own Obi Wan Kenobi, Mr. Ogata!!! With balloons flying everywhere and the Jedis swinging their lightsabers every which way, the crowd went wild over seven over-the-top challenges!!! Honestly, this event was probably the best one that the Student Council has ever put together. With that being the case, we can't wait to see what's in store for us the rest of the year. We can only hop that "the Force be with us!" Cade, SG President
