This is an off-topic question so please respond to me offlist. I am the
chairperson of the spirit committee at my son's school. They recently
moved to a new building and changed their school name/mascot/school
colors. We've sold t-shirt, hoodies, sweatshirts, and water bottles with
the new logo on them with fair success. The president-elect of the
school's PTA would like some ideas for next year to really boost school
spirit and some fun activities/incentives we can do to get students to
wear their spiritwear. Right now, students and staff wear their school
shirts on Fridays and they hold a drawing for a water bottle (one for a
primary student and one for an intermediate student) each week. This has
caused some hard feelings among those who don't win and those whose
parents won't buy a school shirt. So, my question is this: what are some
activities and ideas that others in elementary schools do to help
boost/encourage school spirit? Thanks!
