The first Lion Pride News of 2026 welcomes students back from Winter Break with fun facts about New Year's traditions around the world. The episode outlines the schedule for next week's Pride Assemblies, which will celebrate accomplishments from the second nine weeks during RTI: 6th grade on Tuesday, 7th grade on Wednesday, and 8th grade on Thursday. The K4K Club will host a guest speaker from the Ronald McDonald House next Thursday; students are asked to bring collected pop tabs to Miss Youngblood by Wednesday. LPN also issues a final reminder that yearbooks are $30 and must be purchased by January 20, and announces the new photography contest categories for January and February: sunset/sunrise, candid, water, and animals.
The episode features a series of interviews asking students and staff about their favorite Christmas gifts and traditions, with answers ranging from a trip to New York City to a "manly" scented candle. The show also includes a "Best 'Sit Down' Voice" challenge and a segment asking students how they spent their time off during the break.
