“Work hard, play hard!” was the motto for our recent CEO Class Day.

For those unfamiliar, a Class Day is when we come together to sharpen skills, reflect on our week, and build stronger teams. We never meet on a school campus—and with the beautiful weather, we headed to the park!

The morning kicked off with 30 minutes of pickleball to wake up, get moving, and build some friendly competition. Then came the challenge: students had 3 minutes to run to their cars, grab an item for show & tell, and prepare a 60-second pitch.

The twist? Each pitch had to include:
✅ 2 features
✅ 2 benefits
✅ A strong opener (targeting their audience)
✅ A clear call to action

It was amazing to see their creativity, quick thinking, and competitive spirit shine through as they turned everyday items into persuasive pitches!

The students evaluated each other on their pitches and want to give special recognition to Israel, Grady & Aubrey for top 3 pitches!
