What do you think of Spirit Week?
Here is one student's response...
Spirit Week is a time where everyone gets together as one and tries to make one week as fun as possible. Spirit Week is put together by the kids at the school and we do things like decorate halls, tug-o-war, soda chugging, and, on Friday, we have a ralley. Spirit Week is not a waste of time but a time for kids to come together as one and have fun.-Sylvia Gagnon
