SPIRIT WEAR DAY - OCTOBER 18
|
Next Spirit Wear Day - October 18th
Our next Spirit Wear Day is Friday, October 18th in observance of National Bullying Prevention month. Wearing Spirit Wear reminds us that "we are crew", and shows respect for our school and our classmates. Spirit wear that was ordered by Friday, October 11 will go home with your student today or tomorrow.
Please note that students may wear either Amana spirit wear, or their uniform. This is not an out of uniform day, but a spirit wear day. Students who wear spirit wear should follow the out of uniform guidelines (located in the parent handbook), with the exception that they should be wearing an Amana spirit wear shirt. Students who do not have spirit wear may wear their uniform as usual.
