Seven days graced with a flash from the past, blinding sights of mismatch, and a flurry of orange and black, Spirit Week was a rally of Tiger Pride.
The week before Thanksgiving was a momentous occasion at SHHS, with each day celebrated with a different theme, whether it is camouflage or pajamas. Each individual theme climaxed at a Wednesday pep rally and was glorified by a victorious football triumph against Chicopee Comp on Thanksgiving.
Spirit Week was liked by many students and staff. When trying to capture the essence of Spirit Week, Breckon Halliday, junior, feels “it is phenomenal.”
Randy Fuller, a coach at SHHS, feels Spirit Week’s success “this year is due to increased organization over previous years.”
Fuller enjoyed spirit week, but feels “school spirit needs to be more consistent and not just one week of the year.”
Spirit Week seemed like a successful celebration to most atSHHS, but some see it differently. “It sucks,” said Benji Arnold, senior.
Arnold felt “certain events lacking in originality and enjoyment should be changed and replaced…I don’t like fashion disaster day or pajama day at all.”
The week was a celebration loved and hated by many. Some saw it as a fun and interesting rally of Tiger Pride, while others saw it as a redundant tradition that desperately needs change. Spirit Week invigorated student’s emotions and brought out the Tiger Tenacity of SHHS.
