This year why not try some fun new “days” and break free from the “same-old-same-old” spirit days of the past.
Spirit Week Ideas
Retro Spirit Day
Instead of a 60’s or 70’s day, throw a Retro Spirit Day. Students must dress in retro spirit gear, and represent the decade chosen.
Flip-Flop Day
Students dress like their favorite staff member, and staff members dress like students.
Salad Dressing Week
Choose a salad dressing for each day of the week, then dress accordingly.
- Thousand Island (Caribbean/Hawaiian)
- Ranch (Cowboy)
- Blue Cheese (Blue)
- Caesar (Togas and sandals)
- French (Berets and fashionable clothes)
- House Dressing (School Colors/School Spirit)
Duct Tape Day
Students must wear an outfit decorated with or made from duct tape.
Green Day
Students wear completely recycled items. From hand-me-down clothes, to using ordinary garbage to make hats, purses, accessories, etc.
New Trend Day
Students are challenged to come up with a new fashion trend all their own, and dress accordingly. Who knows, they might start the next big craze.
Get the word out!
Announce your spirit week activities with a Spirit Week Banner! Have it printed with your daily events, or get one that can be re-used with the days of the week blank, then simply write in your events with a washable marker!
What spirit day themes have you used in the past? What days seem to generate the most participation?
Great Ideas!! We do a prom Spirit week that coincides with our theme!! Will be using these!
