With the sound of the lunch bell, students gather with their peers to enjoy an hour of lunch filled with laughter and no work. Embracing this optimistic ambience, the Student Government Association (SGA) enacted Fun Friday, a celebration that takes place during lunch on the last Friday of every month outside the cafeteria.

Beginning in October, SGA sported orange clothing to raise awareness for anti-bullying and passed out treats. On Nov. 18, SGA hosted their second Fun Friday of the school year. They passed out free ice cream, played music, and socialized with the student body.

“I’m really glad that the student government started Fun Friday,” theatre junior Azure Kordick said. “I think [Fun Friday] is really cool because [students] get to listen to music and songs that we enjoy, while eating ice cream which is always a plus.”

With the occasional breeze of the coming fall, the weather remains perfect for an ice cream snack during lunch. Members of SGA distributed ice cream bars to combat the heat and rejuvenate students’ energy that is often lost from hours in class.  

“I love [Fun Friday] because I get to enjoy ice cream,” theatre sophomore Carlton Willis said. “[By far, my favorite part] is getting lit with my friends during lunch. The music is a bonus.”

Fun Friday, an event directed towards ending the week with entertainment, has been especially favored by students. With the next Fun Friday, students anticipate a sweet treat and lighthearted conversations.

“[My favorite part of Fun Friday] is definitely the ice cream and socializing with my friends,” Kordick said. “I hope they keep doing it.”

About the Contributor
Jennifer Jia, Editor-in-Chief
Communications senior Jennifer Jia is a third-year staffer and the Editor-in-Chief of The Muse. She is also a member of the Speech and Debate Team, the social media manager of her local nature center, and a member of her school’s honor societies. When she is not obsessively researching about college or attempting to study 12 hours straight for her AP classes, she enjoys writing, drawing, and taking nature hikes—yes, even in Florida’s melting heat. Her goal as the Editor-in-Chief is to provide quality journalism that the newsmagazine’s audience can enjoy, whether that would be articles, videos, social media posts, or layout designs. Undoubtedly, her time in the publication has given her a voice, a passion for journalism that she hopes to continue, and most importantly, The Muse family who she considers to have created lifelong friendships. While the publication can be stressful at times, she embraces a positive attitude and can thoroughly say that The Muse has been the highlight of her high school experience.
