  • Thursday, April 30th - “Twin” the best you can with coordinating outfits and send in a collage of what you came up with!
  • Friday, May 1st - Since Tradition Never Graduates, throw on your favorite BFA attire to reminisce and show your spirit!

Important - when sending us your submissions, please share files as:

“Your name+grade_day of the spirit week_date” so that we can organize and edit them.  Please send all Spirit Week photos to kesweeney@maplerun.org.

Each day we will announce the CLASS who had the highest participation, and at the end of the week the ultimate winner (and the prize) will be announced!

Make sure your photos are taken against an appropriate background so that we can make a fun slideshow at the end of this exciting week!
