This year students and teachers will team up for a door decorating contest correlating with the homecoming theme: Timber’s Got Game. The theme will be centered around the idea of board games as well as other games. 3B classes will work together to create a theme for their door and have it up by Monday, Sept. 12 for the student body to see. The door décor will remain up until Friday, Sept. 16. The student body and class officers will judge the doors and the winning class will receive a $50 gift card to have treats in their class.

Additionally, everyday of this week will have it’s own board game-themed hype:

Monday, 9/12: Let’s Go Fishin’ – Wear fishing attire.

Tuesday 9/13: Gotta Clue What You Want to Do? – Dress like your future occupation.

Wednesday 9/14: Battle of the Classes – Wear your assigned class color (or camo):

Freshmen – white

Sophomores – black

Juniors – gold

Seniors – purple

Staff – gray

Thursday 9/15: Game Day! – This is the day to wear spirit shirt and mums.

Friday 9/16: Group Matching Day

UPDATE: Principal Bartlett says students and teachers can wear hats and bandanas to go along with their spirit wear each day.
