The new West Hempstead High School Principal, Mr. DeTommaso, spoke a few words. Then we were treated to an outstanding performance by our school cheerleaders. The big excitement this year was the announcement of Mr. and Ms. West Hempstead.
This was the first time the winners were announced at the Pep Rally. All of the candidates were called down to the center of the gym for the announcement. Mr. West Hempstead for this year is Robert Bethune and the winner for Ms. West Hempstead is Autumn Collins.

The final event was the Pep Rally Relay Race where contestants from the freshmen, sophomores, junior and senior classes had to use scooters to make their way from one cone to another, on their stomachs using plungers.
The race finished as the juniors won coming in first, the seniors coming in second, the freshmen coming in third and the sophomores came in last for fourth place. This pep rally was full of excitement and was a huge success.
