Friday Night Lights takes the excitement of the school day and carries it into the afternoon ahead of kickoff.

"Annapolis High (AHS) and Severna Park High students largely ran the event by serving as the dais in each room. They taught parliamentary procedure, modeled best practices for serving in a committee, and selected the participants who should be recognized with awards. These students did most of the work on the day of the event, and they did very well!" - Ms. Sarah Poole, SPHS Social Studies Department Chair
I believe all students can learn within an environment where kindness matters and they feel safe to take risks.
