Homecoming week as it's progressed

During this Homecoming week, we have had some very exciting events. Wednesday, Sept. 22, the theme of the day was “Nerd vs. Jock Day.” For this theme we got to choose to either dress as a nerd or a jock, obviously. A way to describe what most of the “nerds” were wearing was anything involving plaid, suspenders, pants pulled up to the waist, or the new 3-D glasses that the movie theaters give away when you see a 3-D movie. If you pop out the lenses they look just like “nerd” glasses. The “jocks” were dressed in any type of sport uniform from in or outside of school, or any kind of sport team accessory. I saw a lot of people wearing Blackhawk jerseys, Cubs jerseys, and international jerseys. It was fun to see how certain students would go all out.

The activity for the day was the Candy Grab. Each class had to run from one end of the field to the other, grabbing your class candy. Freshmen grabbed Reese’s, Sophomores grabbed Nerds, Juniors Jolly Ranchers, and Seniors Skittles. Each and every student had to participate, and the Sophomores pulled through for the win.
