In their own words:
"110 state championships – the most of all Kansas public schools.
Home to the largest student-led volunteer organization in the nation — with over 65 SHARE projects. Top 3% of all schools.
Are these the things that make you proud to be a Lancer? The solid, unarguable statistics that YOU SHOUT BACK when they chant ‘Feast on East.’
But maybe the winning statistics are only part of your pride. Maybe you still feel like you have something MORE TO PROVE.
So next time, when someone makes you feel like you’re ‘too proud,’ FLIP THROUGH THESE PAGES TO FIND THE PROOF; the reasons why you scream-sing our school song."

"You complain about the new phone policy and make fun of the people who waited in line for three hours in 30-degree weather just to get a spot in the student section at the Rock game.
But the second someone from another school judges you for going to SM East, you’re suddenly defending everything you thought was stupid.
‘IT’S TRADITION! IT’S ACTUALLY REALLY FUN. YOU JUST DON’T GET IT.’"
