No jeans with holes or tears each day of Spirit Week, NO leggings, and NO shirts with graphics, pictures, or words.

Students can dress up for the day and channel their inner superhero, favorite tv/movie character, or twin with someone. Students who dress up from each grade band (PreK-2), (3-5), and (6-8) will be entered in a drawing to win a restaurant gift card.

Crazy Clothes Day:
Wear as many colors and patterns, a wacky hat and some silly socks. The possibilities are endless! Students get to match their clothing in combinations that would never be worn together.
