They were on the ballot with Alexis Crowell, Alyssa Stanford, Shelby Stary, Elizabeth Gallardo, Koy Kresta, Ryan Drapela, and Abraham Montes. Were you watching "The Vampire Diaries", "Pretty Little Liars", "Teen Wolf", or "The Walking Dead"? And, did you know all the words to "Royals", "Blurred Lines", or "Radioactive"?

To celebrate homecoming week, they each made a positive affirmation mum. Positive affirmations help build us up and improve our confidence, even when things are difficult.
