It’s that time of the year again, ladies and gentlemen! What time, do you ask? Well, it’s none other than graduation season.
For the next month, students from across the country – and world for that matter – will put on their caps and gowns, and take another leap closer to their future goals. These students, whether they’re in elementary school, middle school, high school, college or beyond, will walk across the stage to obtain the certificates or degrees that they’ve worked oh so hard to get.
Can you remember the day that you graduated from school? It was such a festive occasion and your family was so proud of you. In fact, we’d bet that you were very proud of yourself, as well. There are certainly far less things that make you feel as good as your or a loved one’s graduation. Now that we think about it, school was not only an integral part of our upbringing simply because of our education. But, it was such a fun time to…well…obviously just be a kid.
And even if you're not graduating this year, iHeartRadio has all the best music from the year you graduated on http://graduationplaylist.com/. Just put in your graduation year, and let the nostalgia take over.
Some of the best moments in school involved dances or parties or pep rallies! It was during these times that school spirit was at an all-time high. From the athletes who would come to school decked out in their uniforms, to cheerleaders cheering on the court or field; pep rallies were everything.
Let’s not even forget about school bands and the music they played to get every student on their feet. We mean, has Beyonce’s Coachella performance taught you guys anything?!
So, to celebrate graduations in 2018 and show some school love in general, let’s take a look at eight songs that always get pep rallies hype every time their beats drop.
