Spirit week is a prime opportunity for schools or businesses to celebrate their culture and community while shaking up the routine. And every spirit week needs some themed days, when students and employees can dress up, dress down, or participate in exciting games and contests. The best themes are simple and accessible, so that everyone can participate, but still exciting enough to encourage some real creativity. It’s a delicate balance to strike, which is why we’ve come through with a list of the 78 best themes and activities to schedule during your spirit week.
Things You Should Know
