Spirit Week

Welcome back to school (almost). 

In case you were not aware, this coming week is Spirit Week - Yeaaaaaaaa

Here’s the rundown on the week’s fabulous activities:

Monday - Wear your PJ’s to school
I realize some of you do this every day anyway, but this is a chance for the rest of us to catch up with your cutting-edge, fashion-forward sense. Remember, it all has to be totally, and completely school appropriate. 

As for me….nope, not doin’ this. Not even thinking about it. Neva gonna happen.

Tuesday - Hat day
This is the day you’ve all been waiting for - you CAN wear hats in school today! After asking students 234,657 times to remove their hats, hoods, tiaras, crowns and bunny ears, today your teachers are taking the day off and letting you wear hats in school. 

Of course it has to be school appropriate - no camouflage, no rude sayings on the hats and, most important of all - NO YANKEE HATS. Okay, that’s just my own guideline. But, seriously, don’t wear a Yankee hat in my classroom or be prepared to face the consequences. BTW - This is field trip day for the 8th grade so consider that in your hat selection process. 


Wednesday - Dress up day
Hump day is the day to look your finest. Put on your finest outfit and be ready for the sly, admiring glances from all your super-impressed friends. Just don’t be that guy who wears
the t-shirt printed up like a tuxedo. I wonder, can anyone outshine Mr. Clark’s Friday three piece suit look?

Thursday - Twin day
Make a match. Find a friend, teacher, paraprofessional, staff member or administrator and dress alike. Last year, my 8th grade had five sets of actual twins so that Twin Day was really something to see.

Friday - Spirit day
Wear your Bartlett gear! This school should be flooded in Bartlett Blue!!! I have multiple shirts and plan to change several times during the day.
