Today was the beginning of the spirit week preceding the Sno Daze dance this coming Saturday.

Last week the theme of the dance was announced as winter wonderland but, in the days leading up to the dance, students will have the chance to wear U.S.A. themed clothing, have a pajama day, wear all black, deck themselves out in flannel and wear MA clothing for school pride.

This week kicked off with students wearing red, white and blue striped hats, leggings, coats, glasses and more and is one of the many ways that students excite themselves for the coming dance along with a school-wide jeopardy game played amongst students and staff and the other spirit days to come.

Get ready for Sno Daze everyone, because the week has just begun!
