After more than a year online, Country Day students started the new school year off in a familiar way: senior sunrise, short 15-minute class meetings and an hour of games around campus.

Students were split up into two teams, divided up by their class grades. Freshmen and seniors formed the black team, and sophomores and juniors made up the red team. The two teams were split into smaller teams of black and red, which rotated games and competed against each other for wins. The red team won the competition, 19-14, as announced by the student council on Sept. 1.

Games included an egg walk, scooter race, bucket fill, water balloon toss, musical chairs and cornhole.

Seniors began the day early with senior sunrise — the new graduating class was treated to breakfast and a sunrise at 6:30 a.m. They then walked through the Country Day campus, lower to high school, saying their favorite memories from each grade.
