Monday: Pajama Day
Ever feel like you just want to roll out of bed and come  to school?  This is your chance to do that!  Wear your favorite P.J. tops and bottoms, slippers and robe.  Make sure your hair is a mess and bring  your stuffed animal!   Don't forget to brush your teeth!  


Tuesday: Twin Day
Grab your best friend or favorite teacher and make yourselves look like "twins." Dress alike from head to toe by wearing matching shoes, hats or clothing. Then spend the day acting alike, talking alike and doing everything the same. Drive your friends crazy, and even eat the same kinds of foods for lunch.


Wednesday: Crazy Outfit Day
Did your mom give you the craziest or most colorful outfit ever for Christmas? If so, here is your chance to make her happy and wear it to school. Wear the silliest coordination of shirts, pants, shoes, socks and hats.  Tuck those pant legs into your socks- we won't care! 


Thursday: Sports Day
 Get out your  favorite team jersey or wear your favorite pro or college team colors. If you don't have a  favorite team, dress in your favorite sports attire such as tennis clothes, a cheerleading outfit, or a
ny other sports apparel that interests you.

 
Friday: Green & White Day

On Green & White day, wear your school colors and show off your school pride. Students who are on a team or in a Spirit organization will commonly wear their uniforms or team T-shirts on this day.
