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 same indignation that is said to have cleared the temple once will clear it again. The question is not about the weapon, but the spirit in which you use it. No man has appeared in America, as yet, who loved his fellow-man so well, and treated him so tenderly. He lived for him. He took up his life and he laid it down for him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Pray be always in motion. Early in the morning go and see things; and the rest of the day go and see people. If you stay but a week at a place, and that an insignificant one, see, however, all that is to be seen there; know as many people, and get into as many houses as ever you can.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
