Secret spirit days are BACK!  The staff will be secretly dressing in theme ONCE PER MONTH from now until the end of the school year.  The trick? Students won’t know which day or theme the staff is planning for.  If you think it is a secret spirit day, come to guidance to make your guess. If you are correct, you will receive a coupon for cookies from the cafeteria.  Each month the first TEN students who make their correct guesses BEFORE the first bell will receive a cookie coupon.
