Homecoming Week: a week of fun and crazy dress up days, with a fun pep rally on Friday! This week we are celebrating homecoming week. This is probably one of my favorite weeks of the school year, because we get to dress extremely goofy and crazy, and no one will look twice or get talked about in a bad way. Like yesterday was eighties day, so I was able to have a side ponytail and dress in a big tshirt and I fit in with everyone else who participated. I really do like school spirit, because it shows how our school comes together, mostly to beat the seniors.
We just got in a discussion about how the pep rally activities are not rigged, and it just seems to be that the seniors always win every year. However, last year, the teachers surprised us by creating their own lip sync routine and danced it for us. The entire student body was going crazy in the gym, as we cheered on the teachers and sang along to the song playing. So, there was a lot of school spirit that day.
Tomorrow is school spirit day/blackout for the junior class. After getting points for showing school spirit, the entire junior class is having a black out, where everyone wears black to counter the seniors, who will be having a white out. The gym is going to look pretty awesome tomorrow at the pep rally.
Because I am also in band, we help contribute to the school spirit. At every home football game we perform pregame and also play the school song whenever our team scores a touchdown. Then, we keep the audience entertained by performing a half time field show. After the game we play the school song again, regardless of winning and losing the game, and we just help with the atmosphere. That is probably why I love being in the band so much, because we help contribute to the night and make it more fun, which also shows more school spirit.
