Log In to Virtual Spirit
It’s been eight months since students were last on campus together, and it has been difficult to stay connected with fellow peers.
PVHS leadership classes, ASB and BTC, have been organizing virtual school spirit weeks and events.
Students are able to participate by posting on their Instagram stories according to that day’s activity/theme.
From Yellow Ribbon Week to Homecoming, both programs have come up with themes for each day of these virtual spirit weeks.
“I think it is really cool that we have had virtual spirit weeks, it makes the school year feel more normal” senior Emily Drawer said.
Even though students are unable to be all together at once, virtual spirit weeks are a good way of feeling connected during the pandemic.
During the Virtual Homecoming week, ASB made plans to have a drive in movie.
Unfortunately with COVID-19, some felt it would be unsafe which led to the cancellation.
However, students could still participate by posting on social media and voting for homecoming court.
“It is definitely much harder to get people to participate this year, but we’ve quickly learned to tailor our outreach to the new way of living,” ASB President and senior Daisy Robertson said.
While being far apart, the student camaraderie is still just one screen away.
