La Porte High School - El Pe Yearbook (La Porte, IN)

Change of Pace The most memorable week of school was homecoming, the week that brings out an abundance of spirit and a lot of fun. It began on Monday by dressing up. After school the girls kicked off their heels and put on their scruffs for a game of powder puff football. Tuesday was athlete day. Wednesday was sweats day with the games after school. Thurs- day was by far the wildest, nerd-clash day with the all night decorating of the cafeterias and hallways. Friday, of course, was black and orange day which was excitingly followed by the car caravan, bonfire, pep session, game and the dance. 1 The junior class has a little fun after decorating 2.
