Sorry for the delay; I was out of town over the weekend and didn't have time to catch up on my blog.
Thursday was Spirit Day. It's celebrated the last school day of each month. The students wear our school colors (blue and white) as a show of pride in our school. They come in decked out in shirts, bottoms (skirts, pants, or shorts), bracelets, hairbows and headbands, socks, etc. Some of them really go all out!
The teachers wear school colors or our school T-shirts (we ordered them last year as a staff). We also get to wear blue jeans and sneakers on those days. (Yes!)
There is a monthly competition between classrooms for the class with the most spirit. The office determines this by sending a little sheet in our attendance folders for us to write the percentage of students in school spirit gear. The prize is a banner to be posted outside of the winning classroom's door, sort of like bragging rights for a month. To make it fair because we have so many classrooms, the winners are announced by grade level at the end of the day. It's funny because you can hear the groans and cheers resonating through the hallways throughout the announcements.
My class didn't win this month, but maybe next time...
