Fresh off the excitement of Homecoming Week, Lower School students and families can keep the school-spirited fun going by attending Lower School Spirit Night on Friday, January 27. Plan to make an evening of it. There will be plenty of options for everyone and lots of basketball.
By Amy Woodson, Head of Lower School
Lower School will have another opportunity to celebrate and show our spirit Friday, January 27 for LS Spirit Night. Students and their families will enjoy free snacks from the concession stand, face painting, sign making, and other spirited activities while showing our support for our older schoolmates.
There are basketball games in Sperling and Cheek Gyms beginning around 4:30 p.m. for Middle and High School girls and boys basketball teams. Between the JV boys game at 4:30 p.m. and the HS girls game beginning at 6 p.m., Lower School students may choose to participate in relays and challenges on the court in Sperling Gym. It's going to be a spirit fest.
