The entire district will be celebrating the basketball sensation of March Madness the week of March 3-9.

The students are allowed to wear college t-shirts and sweatshirts with their standardized dress code Monday through Friday.

Teachers are encouraged to engage in collegiate talk with their students and wear their college shirts.

“Try to wart a college shirt every day next week and talk to any and all students about their plans for their future,” said Amy Millis, director of academic and career connections.

ROTC is taking their part in this by collecting money for a fundraiser.

Before school, during lunch, and after school Wednesday March 6, and Thursday March 7, ROTC will sell wrist bands for $1 to wear jeans with a college shirt or sweat shirt on Friday March 8.

The money will go to benefit the wounded veteran fund.  For more information about this program see ROTC raises funds to send veteran to memorial.

“Students may not wear a professional sports shirt or jersey during this week,” Principal Mr. Williams said.

Get your guns up Red Raiders! Gig ’em Aggies! Hook ’em Horns! Go Frogs! Sic ’em Bears! Insert your school here!

About the Contributor
Elizabeth Abrams
Elizabeth Abrams, Raider Reader Editor, Tech Editor
I sing off key, belch, laugh really loud, hate wearing pants, dance like a maniac and still leave my window open for Peter Pan. I enjoy blogging more than I enjoy spending time with most people. I love writing about situations that most people don't think about and twisting it to a different point of view. I also love to put myself in another person's life, figure out how their brain works and write about it. Making people think a little harder, and walk in others shoes is what I aim to do when I write.  I tend to be socially awkward and say things that only make sense to me.  I always say I have no friends, and that I'll be the cat lady, and that I'm beautiful (which I am). I aspire to be a journalist or a princess or a little bit like Carrie Bradshaw. I'm hoping for the latter two though. No I'm not Mr. Abrams’ daughter, and did I mention I'm sarcastic? I am a part of the class of 2014 and this is my second year as the Raider Reader Editor. I'm a little bit crazy, a lot of loud and full of passion.
