Kickin' it off Strong!

This week of September 14th to September 20th has quickly proven to be the first of our major "hell weeks". It's been a stressful week filled with spirit days, rallies, tailgating, some float meetings on the side, and the annual El Sobrante Stroll to top off this wonderful anxiety packed week. Weeks like this can be degrading, but are totally necessary in keeping this leadership class aware and on their feet!

The week kicked off with our first spirit week of the year:

-Monday: Sports Day

-Tuesday: Twin Day

-Wednesday: Walt Disney Day

-Thursday: Black Out Day

-Friday: Class Colors

Monday had shown that it was obvious that class rivalry was stronger than ever this year. The junior class came out swinging  on the first day and clutching onto an early first place. As the week progressed, however, DA's senior class made a fantastic comeback by snatching away first place from the juniors. The juniors had dragged down to third place with an unlikely class proceeding them-- the sophomores!

Rally Day decided the final victors through various games and yell competitions. First place went to an extremely hyped up senior class with the Class of 2018 following right behind by only three points. The junior class struggled to get back up to the mountain top and instead sat stagnant in third place. Although only freshmen, the freshmen class surprised everyone with their energy and rising school spirit.

After a day of some much needed rest, De Anza Leadership got together one more time for the annual El Sobrante Stroll. Whether at information booths or parading, every leadership student was busy  and played an instrumental role in representing De Anza High.

It was a tough and tiring week for all of us, but like always, we pulled through and we'd be more than happy to do it all over again.
