The fourth day of Spirit Week started strongly with many students walking into the building dressed for Age Day.
The freshmen dressed up as toddlers, wearing many colorful onesies, hair bows, and pacifiers. Sophomores dressed as elementary school children and wore pajamas and children’s backpacks.
Juniors were assigned working adults, and several students wore suits and ties and other career-related clothing like scrubs. Finally, seniors went all out for their last Spirit Week as senior citizens; from wigs to walkers, seniors did not disappoint.
Sophomore Michaela Hipley said, “I liked how a lot of seniors went all-out on their costumes. A lot of seniors had canes and stuff that was really funny.”
During an extended advisory, students watched the Academic Team take on a teacher team. The competition was hosted by Academic Team Moderator Sherri Woosley.
Teacher Team Member Matthew Blair said, “It was very well organized and put together.”
The Quiz Bowl included puzzling questions from various subject areas and even some curve ball questions regarding athletics and tire changing.
A second member of teacher team, English teacher Lucas Denzler said, “Quiz Bowl went well; for my first year here, it was very exciting, Mr. Blair and the others took it very seriously. I also did Quiz Bowl at my last school.”
The teachers won 280-40. The students just could not compete with the teacher’s knowledge on various subjects.
The Ring Hunt also took place on Thursday during mods four through nine. Each mod, students were emailed a clue about the location of the ring. When the ring was found, it was taken to the security desk, where the student who found the ring received an Amazon gift card.
