It’s time to start thinking about school spirit!<\/p>\n
Fostering school spirit and encouraging student participation has many benefits. It helps encourage unity among students, parents and staff, grows confidence and sportsmanship, and encourages the dissolve of social divisions.<\/p>\n
And let’s not forget about fundraising. School spirit products and events can yield huge contributions to school and athletic funding.<\/p>\n
So this year get crazy with school spirit!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Spirit Friends:\u00a0<\/strong>Choose an inexpensive item like\u00a0Shakers<\/a>. Sell them during spirit week to be delivered to friends with a personal message. You’ll spread spirit throughout the school and raise funds at the same time!<\/p>\n Give-Away-Day:<\/strong>\u00a0One day a week draw the name of one student and one staff member for a prize such as a movie ticket, gift card, school store certificate, spirit merchandise or football game ticket. Or have some\u00a0T-shirts<\/a>\u00a0on hand to give-away. If the person drawn is dressed in school spirit colors\/garb they win, if not a new name is drawn. Fundraisers:<\/strong>\u00a0Exciting new spirit products can ignite a new interest among students. Look for unusual and unique items. Sell them in the school store or hold a special spirit event, and sell them in the hallways or lunchroom during spirit week.<\/p>\n
