Throwback to Old Hollywood: Upcoming Homecoming Festivities

This week, ACP students will be thrown back in time to the Golden Age of Hollywood with some pre-Homecoming festivities! Here are some more details about these upcoming events, including our Homecoming Carnival, Homecoming Game, and Homecoming Dance.

Spirit Week

Monday, September 16 – Monochrome Monday
Tuesday, September 17 – Animated Tuesday
Wednesday, September 18 – Boujee Wednesday
Thursday, September 19 – Cowboys vs Aliens Thursday
Friday, September 20 – Red Carpet Friday

Make sure that you participate in the glitz and glam of this week’s spirit days. Monochrome Monday brings us back to the days of black-and-white silent films. On Animated Tuesday, we’ll be paying tribute to some classic animated films, so come to school dressed as one of your favorite cartoon characters. For Boujee Wednesday, wear your name-brand items and model the glamour of Old Hollywood. On Thursday, take your pick: say “Yee-haw!” as a cowboy or infiltrate the school in your finest alien attire. Come to school on Friday decked-out in red clothes for Red Carpet Friday. Here’s a video with some inspiration for this week’s spirit days: https://youtu.be/.
