Holi-Day

The bell rings and students walk in wearing plaid pants, Christmas hats and even costumes. For the first dress-up day of homecoming week, McIntosh students and staff kicked off with Holi-Day outfits representing their favorite holiday.
“I chose Fourth of July for my favorite holiday because we have a big party at our house and all of our friends come,” Geometry teacher Heather Hulse said.

A number of students participated even if it just meant wearing colored clothes that matched the traditional color themes of certain holidays, like red and green for Christmas.

This allows students to show off school spirit as the days until the homecoming game and celebration occur.
