Spring Spirit week wraps up with class color day

in News by

For the last day of “AHS Unwrapped” Spring Spirit Week, students were able to dress up in their class colors. Seventh graders to seniors participated in the fun, with a mirage of blue, purple, red, green, yellow and orange being seen all across campus March 14. 

In addition to the pop of color on campus, SGA hosted its second-ever Spring Pep Rally, featuring games for participants from all grades with excellent prizes such as gift cards and AirPods. This pep rally marks the end of Spirit Week, with all the games and activities of the week being tallied up to declare one Clash of Colors Spirit Week Winner: the class of 2026, the juniors. 

With this joy, many are left reflective of the significance the pep rally has for the year coming to an end. “It’s bittersweet for sure, but I’m glad I have the opportunity to rep my class colors one last time,” senior Haleh Afshani said. For the last spirit day of the school year, here’s a recap of what went down.
