Jonathan Law recently held a “Spirit Week and a Half” and a pep rally the to get students ready for the Thanksgiving Day game and Powder Puff game. 

The Spirit Week themes were Student-Teacher Swap, Country/Country Club, White Lies, Multicultural Day, Twin Day, Pajama Day, Blackout Day, and Law Gear. 

“It doesn’t matter if you play a sport, or participate in choir or band,” math teacher Ms. Russell said. “Spirit weeks can help students that don’t necessarily participate in school activities feel like they are a part of the Law community.” 

Throughout Spirit Week, students dressed up according to the theme. 

This year’s Spirit Week continued for a week and a half. This led up to the annual Law vs. Foran football and Powder Puff games. Spirit Week also featured a pep rally on the  Tuesday before Thanksgiving to get students excited for the upcoming games. 

The pep rally was held in the new gym. Each grade was involved in all activities. 

Students participated in activities such as musical chairs and other games and competitions. There was also a performance from the choir. 

The purpose of the pep rally was for students to get excited for the upcoming games. 

“The purpose of this week’s spirit week was to get students excited for the Powderpuff and Thanksgiving Football game,” sophomore Sarah Ahmed said. “Showing school spirit is a very important part of every school event.”

Russell said she was happy with the results from Spirit Week.

“I think we had a little more participation in the first Spirit Week of the year,” Russell said. “I think we still need to keep it a little simple with the themes so that they are easier to participate in. Once we have a better Spirit Week culture, we can start adding in more ‘out of the box’ themes.”
