Spirit Week
Twice a year (once during Homecoming week, another during Powder Puff football week), the school has a spirit week. During that time, students and teachers alike are allowed to go outside normal dress code and dress up according to the event planned (e.g., Western day, Movie Star day, Pajama day, etc.).
Both spirit weeks are catalysts for a big football game: the first spirit week is used to pump up the school for the upcoming home football game against a league rival, while the second spirit week is used to pump up the school for the upcoming juniors vs. seniors powder puff football game.

Famous quotes containing the words spirit and/or week:
“The spirit of the world, the great calm presence of the creator, comes not forth to the sorceries of opium or of wine. The sublime vision comes to the pure and simple soul in a clean and chaste body.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It is remarkable how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves. I had not lived there a week before my feet wore a path from my door to the pond-side; and though it is five or six years since I trod it, it is still quite distinct. It is true, I fear, that others may have fallen into it, and so helped to keep it open.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
