The Amazing Pumpkin Race!

Kenzie Kline, Lead Photographer • November 1, 2024

On Wednesday 10/30/24 and Thursday 10/31/24, Crestview Elementary School held its annual fall event, “The Amazing Pumpkin Race.” On their P.E. days, 1st-3rd graders participated in different stations set up in the gym. After a certain amount of time, the students would rotate, moving on to play with scooters, jump rope, and more! Each station was run by members of the Key Club, a group at the high school that helps within the community. Just like every year, the kids had tons of fun and can’t wait for next year!

Sophie Rodgers, Editor

Sophie Rodgers is a seventeen- year- old junior in high school. She is an editor for the Steer Stampede and enjoys her quiet time. She keeps a small, close circle of friends who she spends most of her time with if she isn’t working at Scooters Coffee. Sophie is a part of the RSB3 where she plays the flute and was in the Varsity group, top of her section by the time she was a freshman; she is also a section leader. She considers herself to be a high achiever and cares very much about her grades; she stresses over any grade that’s under a 90. Sophie overthinks pretty much everything. She picks out small details and stresses if it doesn’t all go the way she expects it to. You would often find Sophie by herself in her bedroom watching her favorite shows or reading her favorite books. Her favorite shows include Jane The Virgin, All American, and The Summer I Turned Pretty. Sophie’s favorite books are: The Diary Of Anne Frank, The Summer I Turned Pretty, and It’s Not Summer Without You. One thing about Sophie is that she gets annoyed pretty easily, but most of the time you won’t be able to tell that she is even frustrated. Her biggest pet peeve is people who eat loud/ chew with their mouth open.Sophie is one of seven kids so she gets called the wrong name often, mostly by her parents. While she enjoys living in America, she prefers living overseas. When she is older, Sophie would like to go back to China where she lived for the majority of her life before coming to Graham (12 years).
