Spirit Week 2017

Have you ever day-dreamed about yourself being the talk of the crowd and strutting those hallways with no fear because your outfit is absolutely breathtaking?!? Well,Spirit Week is the week to be FABULOUS!!! Everyday we had new themes that you are allowed to dress up in so you can make your dreams and fantasies into a reality! By our nature, also known as Student Council, we chose the best of the best such as Sporty Monday, Disney and Pixar Tuesday, Wacky Wednesday, Throwback Thursday, and finally Heroic Friday. Who needs virtual reality to be who you want to be when it’s right here at your very own school!! Everywhere you looked you saw people in volleyball uniforms and sports jerseys, Mickey and Stitch costumes, colored hair and enormous glasses, afros and shimmering clothing, and lastly Batman and Superman look-alikes. In addition to a dress ups, there was a special lunch activity for each day… kicking it off was Sports Day and the annual Teacher vs. Student Dodgeball Game! Tuesday was Disney day were we had the insane Penny War where people bolted straight for their teams jar and filled it with coins while bombing the others with dollars so they’d lose. It was so intense the tables almost fell to the ground several times! If you thought that was crazy then look no further than the Wacky Wednesday Costume Contest and all the student contestants vying for the throne of wacky! On Throwback Thursday we had the whole school -- all 1,000 students and teachers -- play “FACE THAT COOKIE” AT THE SAME TIME during Homeroom!!! At long last Heroic Friday was upon us and the cafeteria was filled with not only students dancing to lit music but also playing and dancing in the dark with glow in the dark games and clothes. In the end everyone had their smiles and laughs from unforgettable memories...this keeps us smiling and looking forward to try and change the world and try to make it more beautiful than it was before.  Natania, Spirit Committee Co-Chair
