Starting October 3rd and finishing October 27th, S.S. Dixon Intermediate school will compete against W.H. Rhodes school in earning the most Accelerated Reader points (AR). How do you get these AR points? Simple. You have to read and pass a test on the book you read. The goal of course is to BEAT MILTON. After the points have been added together, they will be divided by the number of students in each school. This will determine the winner. What more to get you hyped up than the Pace High Varsity football team. Many people on the team went to S.S. Dixon Intermediate school yesterday to support the youngins. Carson Wright, 11, used the slogan "We will beat them on the field, y'all need to beat them in the classroom."

Senior Night is a tradition in athletics to celebrate the seniors playing their sport. The stands are filled with the student body, friends, and families recognizing the senior players on their last year of playing. Pace High School’s volleyball team had an exciting game for Senior Night. Thursday night. Sept. 22, the Pace community celebrated the Lady Patriot Seniors: Addison Gevo, Isabella Seoane, Kaleigh Windham, and Sarah Leonard. The night was a bittersweet moment as it was a celebration but also an occasion that acknowledged the end of the senior’s high school sports career. The Patriots played Milton High School and ended the night with a win. One of the senior players, Isabella Seoane, shares, “It was so great to finally beat Milton after many losses at Senior Night.” The student section dressed as Minions to "Minion Milton" and cheered the team to victory. As the night came to an end, everyone wished the senior athletes the best for the rest of the season and good luck to them in the future.
