N I T painting classes to the local candidates assisted by stu¬ dent political groups, know how much we have to offer, how much of ourselves we give. Community Day, a tradi- Y tion as old as Groveton, is a symbol of Groveton ' s role in the community — a com¬ mon bond between diverse socio-economic back¬ grounds.

I With Homecoming just around the corner, the students ' spirit shone through the halls of Groveton throughout the week. Monday was Pajama Day, where students only had to jump out of bed, put on their slippers, grab their stuffed animals, and catch the bus. What a great way of beating the Monday blues. Tues¬ day was Double your Spirit Day, where students tied up the phone lines coordinating outfits with would-be twins. There was a big turn out on Nerd Day with mix-matched plaids and stripes and taped-together glasses. It was hard to determine just who was in costume. The students went back in time to the fifties on Thursday, dressing up in cardigans and sad¬ dle shoes, bringing back memo¬ ries for most of the teachers. The week ended in shades of Black and Gold, where people painted their faces, hands, legs, and for some — their whole bodies in celebration of the Groveton spirit. J
