Hills West Gets Preppy and Peppy

Spirit Week at Hills West was in full swing today as students busted out their Vineyard Vines tees and khaki pants for “Preppy Day.” The yuppie themed day asked students to show their school spirit by dressing “preppy”, which is defined by dictionary.com as “a person who favors or is viewed as favoring clothing style or behavior associated with traditional preparatory schools.” “It definitely feels good and is cool to see everyone dress nice” said Junior Will Salzano. “It’s also a great way to show school spirit and pride.” The day which encourages students to dress nice was conveniently held this year on picture day for freshmen, sophomores and juniors. This presented a perfect opportunity for most students to come out in their preppy attire and show school spirit during what has been an already exceptional spirit week.
