The Student Council organized a spring "Community Spirit Week." Each day was a special theme - color day with food drive, animal day with donations to the Putnam Humane Society, community day with a cleanup of Cedar St. and Mountain Ave. The week culminated with a Pep-Rally to support spring sports with a school-wide pickle-ball tournament.
