The Davis High homecoming rally took place on Sept. 21 during the fourth period extended time in the North Gym. It was the first in-person rally since the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020.

The rally consisted of a tug of war between grades, crowd chants and performances from both the Davis High dance team and cheerleading squad. 

“My favorite part is when everyone gets … up off their seats” said Mollie Dyer, secretary of spirit for student government. “It honestly gives me goosebumps,” Dyer said.

With dropping COVID-19 cases, the Yolo County Department of Public Health has determined that indoor gatherings are safer than they were this time last year. 

With new possibilities for school events, this rally brought the school together in a refreshingly united way.

DHS dance team co-captain, Sophia Ballard, had a great time performing in such a new setting.  “I liked learning the dance all together and being able to perform it in front of a big crowd that was close up,” Ballard said.
