Spirit Week culminates with the annual Powderpuff games and Homecoming Assembly. Each grade level forms a Powderpuff team, most commonly known as a flag football team, to compete against one another. Spirit points are tallied throughout the week based on participation in activities including penny wars, games during lunch and dressing out according to the daily theme. This year there was an addition of class cheers and banners to the spirit points tally. To read more and view photos click on the title of this post.
