<DIV>Donovan, providing the link couldn’t hurt. Right.
Watching the credits took me back to the time when those kids’ parents were
roaming the halls of MHS and we, the staff, were wondering if they’d ever amount
to anything. This is proof they did. Look at their kids! Great
video. </DIV>

school pride with lip dub </FONT></FONT></H1>

<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Hundreds of Moscow High School students
catapulted themselves to Internet stardom this month thanks to a lip dub video
they created to showcase their school spirit.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">During the video, nearly all of the school's
approximately 600 students dance, lip-sync and otherwise strut their stuff
through the hallways and classrooms they spend most of their time in each school
day.</FONT></DIV>

face="Times New Roman">You must be logged in with the proper services to print
this article. </FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">The video, which features students lip-syncing
and dancing to the song "Pump It" by the Black Eyed Peas, has been watched more
than 8,500 times since it was posted on YouTube on April 10.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"The lip dubbers tell me they'll be walking
around town and be stopped by someone who says, 'Oh, you're from the video,' "
said Brenda Chavez, one of the five students who coordinated the
video.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Alaina Mullin said she got the idea for the
lip dub from a similar video her sister was shown last
summer.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"We never really thought it would happen," she
said.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">But when she and Caitlyn Faircloth were
brainstorming activities for the school's annual Arts Fest, they decided to
recruit some friends and start planning so they could make a pitch to Principal
Bob Celebrezze.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"We didn't want to present the idea to Bob
without knowing exactly what we were going to be doing," said Chavez, the
group's public relations officer.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">They had no problem getting Celebrezze on
board.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"This was a very, very positive event for
Moscow High School students," Celebrezze said, adding that he has received only
positive feedback from parents, community members and others who have watched
the video. He also said he's spoken with principals in other cities who said
they are "jealous of the great school we have here."</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">The five students who organized and filmed the
video - Mullin, Chavez, Faircloth, Skyler Martin and Sebastian Mortimer - tried
to prominently feature students from each MHS club and sport, but they said the
school has so many extracurricular activities that some groups are represented
in background shots.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">They said they picked the song "Pump It"
because it plays at just about every school dance, so it's familiar to most
students, and the lyrics aren't filled with potentially inappropriate
innuendo.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"It's a fun song that has a lot of different
parts in it," said Mortimer, the project's "creative
mastermind."</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">The students decorated the school's hallways
and practiced the lip dub on the weekend and after school, and on the official
filming day, they only rehearsed one time before shooting the final version.
Students were released from class early that day so they could all participate
if they desired.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"We offered it as an optional piece to
everyone in the school," Celebrezze said. "Only 10 students asked to not be
involved. I think that says a lot about Moscow High School."</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Mortimer said it was challenging to place
students in their spots and direct them to walk at a certain, consistent speed
during each practice run and the official take.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"We filmed most of the practices just so we
knew what it would look like," said Martin, the group's videographer. The final
video features a blooper reel after the lip dub performance and
credits.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Although any project involving hundreds of
people is bound to have its occasional hiccups, the students said they were
happy with the result and that it felt good to prove naysayers wrong. Students
of different backgrounds and ages worked together on the video, even though many
of them didn't yet know each other.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"I feel like we kind of united the school for
at least one day," Chavez said.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Faircloth said the students are thankful to
their peers and the MHS staff for supporting them throughout the
project.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">"It honestly wouldn't have worked if people
weren't excited," she said. "It made spring of senior year a lot better. Now I
feel more sentimental toward the school."</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">The students said they hope future classes of
MHS students will create their own lip dub videos as a new school
tradition.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=yiv34393373encrypted-content>
