School Spirit
Glenelg's school spirit includes the distinctive use of cowbells at sporting events, stemming from the high school's early history, when bells on the cows from the farm adjacent to the athletic fields could be heard during games. This is mainly practiced by the parents of graduating seniors on the football team or part of the Marching Unit.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or spirit:
“The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“I’ve almost gained my heav’nly home; My spirit loudly sings;
The holy ones behold they come, I hear the noise of wings.
O come, angel band, Come and around me stand.
O bear me away on your snowy wings, To my immortal home.”
—T. Haskell, minister and hymn-writer. Published in Christian Harmony. “Angel Band,” l. 5-8.
