Air Jam is a lip synching contest that allows students to relax for an afternoon and watch their classmates perform.<\/p>\n<p>The winners of the 2016 Air Jam were Travis Lichtensteiger and Sonny Chorvas with their unique rendition of the song \u201cPretty Pink Tractor,\u201d complete with their own \u201cpretty pink pedal tractor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sophomore Ally McCoy enjoyed their performance. \u201cMy favorite act was Sonny and Travis because Travis kept falling off his tractor and I couldn\u2019t tell if it was on purpose or not,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>As the school year comes to a close, Crestview students are taking multiple tests. This week and next, students are taking Advanced Placement (AP) exams. Juniors and seniors take AP courses to attempt to earn college credit by performing well on the test. This week, students took the AP Psychology, AP Literature, and AP United States History exams. Next week, students take the AP Government test and the AP Language and Composition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAP exams are a nice challenge, but I\u2019m definitely glad they\u2019re over,\u201d said senior Noah Smith.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Hannah Bowen Last Tuesday, Erin Camenisch\u2019s Spanish III class went on a field trip to El Paraiso, a Mexican supermarket and restaurant in New Haven, Ind.
