The annual Mr. Apex
pageant will be held Friday, February 20, in the Apex High auditorium. Mr. Apex
is a male pageant where nine senior guys, who were nominated by their
classmates, showcase their talents and answer questions. Student council uses
the money raised by Mr. Apex for further activities that will benefit the
school.
“We definitely had a big
turn out last year,” said student body president, Trisha Bonthu. “It was good
for raising money for student council.” Bonthu says there’s a lot to look forward
to, including seeing the boys perform a dance choreographed by Meredith Bailey,
Erika Forslund, and Jonah Creech-Pritchett.
National Honor Society
and National Technical Honor Society students will have the opportunity to earn
hours when they pay the admission fee as well as bring two to four items listed on the Ronald McDonald wish list. One hour will be provided for every two items
for a maximum of two hours.
Free admission is
offered to anyone who brings a minimum of two items off the wish list. Otherwise,
admission is $5.
