Spirit Week Proud to be a Redskin Traditionally the week pre- ceding the Homecoming foot- ball game has been designated School Spirit Week. For the en- tire week, the students and the faculty were involved in many activities that gave them a chance to show that they were proud to be a Redskin. Students were encouraged to decorate the building with ban- ners, streamers, balloons, and posters. The seniors were re- sponsible for the cafeteria; ju- niors decorated the third floor; sophomores added their special touch to the second floor, and freshmen were given the first floor. The special dress up days were really po pular with both the students and the staff. Wednesday was button day. Students wore as many spirit buttons as they could. Thursday was football-cheerleader day. The guys dressed up as cheer- leaders and the gals became football players for a day. Stu- dents were especially happy when they saw their teachers dressed for the spirit of the day. On Thursday, seventh-period classes were dismissed early so that students could attend a pep session. This was the first pep session during the school day in four years. Most students agreed that this pep session really helped to bring the school together. This togetherness was par- ticularly important since many students were still trying to come to grips with the tragic deaths of two classmates and the serious injury to four others. Though Spirit Week official- ly ended on Friday, Redskin pride was experiencing a re- birth. Firing up the crowd at the Spirit Week pep session is mascot Ishida Downey, junior. Showing pride in their class as well as their school are seniors Joe Burgess, Ryan Booth and Darryl Whitlow. Showing her school spirit, English teacher Miss Dorothy Powell becomes a football player for the day. 14 Spirit Week
