Seniors prepare for week

 Senior Sarah El-Qunni sits with the senior class delegates as they search for a design for the senior t-shirt. This has been just one of many days El-Qunni has spent planning the events for senior week along with spirit days to go with it.

 Senior week this year consisted of five days with a different theme to go with each day and will finish this Friday with the senior bonfire.

 “[Senior week] is more or less a reminder to seniors that we’re seniors and this is the last time to dress up with school spirit,” El-Qunni said.

 The first day of spirit week was “Fresh to Def” day where seniors were to dress up in their most professional clothing. Tuesday was “Superhero” day, Wednesday was “Senior Citizen” day, and today is the day for seniors to wear their class T-shirts. The class t-shirts were picked and designed specifically for the class of 2008 by their class delegates.

 Tomorrow, seniors will wear tropical style clothing to go with “Beach Bum” day.

 “The ‘Superhero’ day [is going to be my favorite],” senior Natalie Dearing said prior to spirit week. “I think it would be fun to dress up as a superhero because my friend has a batman cape that I’m going to wear.”

 Many students are excited to dress up one last time but also students appreciate this final event put on just for them.

 “I think it’s a good way to end high school by having a final good memory with your classmates,” senior Marquise Green said.
