Showing spirit in style

LOOKING out the student body of GACS this week one does not see the typical dress. This week, the student body is honoring the athletes by having Spirit Week, a week where students dress up according to the theme for the day.

The days are different every year, with a few favorites thrown in. This week, students will enjoy wearing camouflage gear (or ninja for those who do not own camo), dressing up as a particular social group, showing peers and faculty what job they want when they grow up, and dressing up as a favorite character from a book, movie, or television show.

The excitement in the student body is unmistakable as students plan what to wear for these fun, unusual days. Along with the dress up days, there will also be a Pep Rally on Friday.

Spirit Week centers around the picking of Mr. and Mrs. Spartan, who are a boy and girl athlete in the school who set an example both on and off the field. This year the nominees for Mr. and Mrs. Spartan are:  seniors Morgan Winston, Alex Mixon, Stephanie Wilding, Blake Foxworthy, Kara Maltby, Lindsay Adams, Chaney Means, Claire Goodson, Lauren Dehnart, Amanda Komisarow, Madeline Barker, Caroline Freeman, Elliot Long, Corey Simmons, Trey Martin, Taylor Bruner, Zac Reidford, Carter Asef, and  Shawn Kane; and juniors Jared Hemmings, Danny Knight, and Jake Montgomery. Congratulations to all the Spartan Spirit nominees.
