There are 2 options this year:

Using the guidelines (linked below), complete the designated google form (only staff should complete the form) for either the door or bitmoji contest.
This year's theme is "I Too, America". Your design can reflect this theme however it is not mandatory. Creativity is encouraged!

Verzuz Battle: Students Vs. Teachers
Tuesday, 2.23 (B-Day - 3rd Block Lunch)
What is VERZUZ?
|
I feel like Verzuz has really solidified Black music as popular music. We drive the culture. Black music drives and influences and touches all other forms of music. When you see Michelle Obama checking in to a chat with John Legend and Alicia Keys and Jill Scott and Erykah Badu, or when you see the kind of show that Bounty Killer and Beenie Man put on…my goodness, these amazing moments in culture!" - Johnta' Austin |
