PASS CHRISTIAN (GG) — As students at Pass Christian High School return for an exciting new academic year, they are greeted with the uplifting theme of “Pass High in Paradise,” aligned with the overarching district theme of “New Horizons.” The school kicked off the year with an energetic pep rally that brought together students, faculty, and staff to celebrate their commitment to excellence and community spirit.

The event was a resounding success, fostering camaraderie among students. Highlights included spirited performances from the cheer and dance teams, live music from the Pride of the Pass and energizing cheers that echoed throughout the gymnasium. The junior class of 2026 stole the show by clinching the first spirit stick of the year, a coveted recognition that symbolizes school pride and participation.

“The school year is off to a great start! We are excited about our students’ and teachers’ enthusiasm for the 2024-2025 school year,” said Dr. Beth Bellipanni, the second-year Pass Christian High School principal. “Our theme encourages students to aim high and embrace every opportunity that comes their way.”

This year’s welcome activities mark just the beginning. As part of its commitment to fostering a strong school spirit, Pass Christian High School has planned several more events throughout the year aimed at building community ties and encouraging student engagement.

Students can look forward to additional rallies, competitions, and community service projects as they strive toward personal growth and shared achievements. The entire community is invited to join in on this promising journey as students “Pass High in Paradise” while embracing new horizons in their educational journey.
