![]() By: Isaac Amparan The purpose of spirit week is to get the students to be supportive and excited about the school and its sports teams.There are multiple ways to show school spirit whether it is to wear school colors, go to the rally, or wear the certain attire for the day. However not everyone enjoys spirit week because of the things like the rally and what else?,certain days of the week, or the activities that are played during the week. Many people would like to change the days on spirit week because they are the same things over and over again. They would also like to change/add new activities so we can make spirit week better. The first person that I talked to about spirit week was Fabian Gonzales, who is a sophomore at KSJC. Fabian said, “spirit week is ok and it has good things and bad things”. One of the things that Fabian said was good was the fact that we get to wear things besides the uniform. Another thing that he said that was good was the activities that we do during the spirit week. The one thing that he said was bad was the rally because we have to sit on the floor for a period of time which is mostly boring,and because there aren't many posters on the wall to get us hyped. The second person that I talked to about this subject was Cristo Rafael who is also a sophomore at KSJC. Cristo said that he really enjoys the spirit week but there is one thing in particular that makes it less fun than its supposed to. The thing that ruins spirit week is the fact that the days are not that creative. This is important to the students because if the day is not that creative then it would make students wear their uniform or the usual things that they wear to school. Cristo said that “his favorite thing about spirit week is the fact that you get to show your creative side and be different from everyone else”. The third person that I talked to is Roman Sahagun who is also a sophomore at KSJC. Roman said that spirit week is ok but could be better. He said that one of the ways that it could be better is that we add new days in and take out the ones that have been repeated.One of the days that you could take out is twin day and you could replace it with favorite movie day. He said that it starts getting boring after you know what days are happening and it makes you feel like wearing the uniform would be the same thing because that same day already happened. Another thing that Roman does not like about spirit week is wearing the grade level color because sometimes the colors are not that great and it causes many people to not participate in that day. Roman said “you could improve grade level day by adding in some new colors or taking it out completely”. In conclusion, spirit week is important because it gets students to be able to have a good time and make fun of each other without it being taken seriously. It would also get both the staff and students the chance to loosen up a bit and have a good time before testing and essays are given again. The staff also gets the chance to be goofy and fun without having the worry of getting to out of context with the topic that they are teaching. Since spirit week is very important to the students we need to change it up so it becomes exiting and gets more people involved.
