We are pleased to announce that Pacific Preparatory’s Spirit Week starts on January 25th, 2021! Ring in the new school year with a virtual dose of school pride.

During Spirit Week, we encourage students and teachers to dress up in their comfiest, silliest, and most out-there costumes. We’ll be showcasing student contributions on a blog and a slideshow (email melissa@pacificpreparatory.com with your Spirit Week photos to be included!). Let’s show each other how fun and creative we can all be in 2021!

Monday, January 25th: Pajama Day

We kick off spirit week by encouraging students to wake up in their coziest pajamas and wear ’em all day! Enough said. :)

Wacky hair… do you dare? Wild colors, hair that stands on end, an assortment of 100 bows… show us your best, most creative hairstyles!

Wednesday, January 27th: Dress in the Dark Day

What if you had to get dressed in the dark, with no way to check whether your outfit matched? On Dress in the Dark Day, see just how mismatched you can get in your day’s attire--as if you’d gotten dressed in the dark!

Thursday, January 28th: Character Day

Do you have a favorite character from a book, T.V. show, movie, or musical/play that you just love? Channel that character by dressing up as them on Character Day!

Friday, January 29th: Pac Prep Day

Our school colors are red, gray, and white and our mascot is the Phoenix. Represent in whatever way you choose!
