NEWS: Law’s Students, Faculty Celebrate “Lawmas” (With Slideshow)
By Morgan Hennessey – Columns Editor
The Jonathan Law community celebrated a holiday this season which demonstrated the immense amount of spirit and respect found at the school.
The holiday, deemed “Lawmas,” consisted of a door decorating contest, an ugly holiday-themed sweater contest, and a lip dub video to Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For [Lawmas] Is You.”
“Lawmas is such a special time of year, it makes us realize how much we love everything about Law,” said Dean of Students Mr. Ragaini. “We love the teachers, the students, the faculty, school spirit and the Law community in general.”
Advisory classes decorated the hallway outside of their classrooms to show not only winter themes of snow and lights but also school spirit.
“We have finally found a way for us all to celebrate during the holiday season and still have respect for all the diversity found in our school,” science teacher Mrs. Bouchard said.
Some decorations expressed all of the students and faculty love about Law. Other decorations promoted respect and love in the school.
“The door decorating contest was just so neat,” said senior Zachary Mullins. “It made the hallway look great and it sent a positive message.”
The music video created by senior Phoebe Herbert was a hit among the school as well as the entire Milford community, with over a thousand hits on Eagle Eye News’ Dailymotion account.
“It was a great way to fit school spirit into the holiday season,” said senior Brittany Bajerski.
The ugly sweater contest took place on the last day of classes before break. Many students and faculty members took part and it was a great final celebration of Lawmas.
“Lawmas was SNOW much fun,” said junior Katie Sabo. “It brought the school together to celebrate our own holiday and I think our school has become a more family-oriented place because of it.”
