Spring Spirit Week
From midwest cowgirls to Hawaiian tourists for Regions Day on Monday, to toddlers and mothers and grandmothers during Stages of Life Day on Tuesday. Students went all out throughout the week for Spirit Week Costumes! They represented women through the decades on Wednesday (shoutout to the faculty and staff who dressed as 1890s newsboys!) and dressed as a "rhyme without reason" with friends on Thursday. The week ended in a great "Green vs. White" field and service day and the annual talent show. Thank you to Ms. Hadley and our Student Council for another great Spirit Week!
