HIGH FLYIN' SPIRIT By Karen Floer t is not uncommon to see students around West Forsyth dressed strange- ly during one certain week of each year. The week of October 20-24, 1986 was Spirit Week. Spirit Week measured the school spirit of all the students. Monday was Club Day. Students partic- ipated by wearing the t-shirts and sweat- shirts they purchased from the different clubs to which they belonged. Tuesday was College Day. As one walked around cam- pus, he saw different shirts and sweatshirts from every school or college imaginable. Wednesday was Beach Day. Students par- ticipated by wearing sunglasses, shorts, t- shirts, and putting sunscreen on their noses. Stacey Jones wore this kind of out- fit, even though the temperature outside was 55 and did not feel like the beach. When asked why she went all-out and dressed up so much she said, It just gives me the feeling that I am at the beach, or getting ready to gof' Green, white, and gold covered the cam- pus on Thursday, as it was School Colors Day. Many students were seen wearing white pants, a green shirt, and yellow ac- cessories. Finally, on Friday, each class was represented by a different color. The senior color was green, the juniors donned yellow, the sophomores wore white, and the freshmen sported gold. At 1:30 p.m. on Friday, October 24, 1986, a pep rally was held. Fifth and sixth periods were shortened, and students went to cheer on their respective graduating class and the varsity football team. The homecoming game was against Davie High School, and West won 24-17. That night at the football game, helium balloons were released as the varsity foot- ball team ran onto the field. The balloons were sold in the concession stand during Spirit Week for 25st each. Sophomores came in first place with the purchase of 5127.75 worth of balloons, juniors came in second, freshmen came in third and the Class of '87 came in last. Spirit Week was a successful event to some extent. When asked what they thought about Spirit Week, Dianne Capps replied, It was an exciting event for those who participated, but not that many peo- ple did. Tamara Glascoe added, I think it would have been more successful if it had been more publicized. I have a couple more years left here at West and I am going to try to improve Spirit Week while I am heref' Even though some students felt that Spirit Week was not as successful as they thought it would be, it was a good idea to boost the way students felt for their school and to see actually how much school spirit each and every student had.
