Photo Collage--Students Welcome Spring With Spirit

By Paige Ordway-- Eagle staff

Spirit weeks are a tradition that Franklin County has done for years to show support for the Eagle athletes and to bring joy to everyone throughout the week, building up to a pep rally on the final day. Students and staff have loved participating and dressing up for days in the past like biker vs. surfer day or Country Camo. This week's theme allowed students to dress up as their favorite teachers, decades, and wear their favorite jerseys!
