The Goeller Cup Playoffs were not played during Mr. Bracken's first year. Although he still used ClassDojo to distribute points and rewards, the tournament system was not implemented for this first school year. The reasoning behind this was to allow Mr. Bracken to get acclimated to his new position. 

Additionally, the Goeller Cup trophy wasn't created until the 2018-2019 school year and thus this year would have been a second season of "ClassDojo Playoffs." Retroactively, Mr. Bracken dedicated the 2017-2018 school year to all of the teachers who helped him get started at Millbrook. The 2018 banner was used to honor his colleagues and thank them for helping him get his start in teaching.
