Freshman win Spirit Week dance competition
“P-I-N-K — we can beat you any day,” dancers from Class of 2021 shouted.
On Friday, March 9, middle schoolers, high schoolers and faculty watched the annual Spirit Week dance competition in the courtyard.
All students gather in the courtyard for the annual Spirit Week dance competition. The freshman placed first.
Every March, student council hosts Spirit Week — a week filled with daily themed costumes and lunch activities, which concludes in a dance competition. Every grade is allowed ten dancers, and they showcase the performances for a panel of faculty and alumnae judges.
This year, the freshman took first place, the seventh grade placed second and juniors got third.
“We are happy [to win] because we worked on this for a very long time,” Tove Jegéus, a freshman dancer and choreographer, said. “We are happy that our hard work pulled through.”
The freshmen danced to a mash-up of popular songs.
“It felt really good that all of our work actually meant something,” Aniyah Shirehjini ’21, another dancer and choreographer, said.
The video above recaps a few dances of the performed.

I liked how this article tells me about the Archer events and what we do. I wish you showed the second place dancers but it was really good.

I liked how it was very specific on who won but I wish there was a clip of the seventh grade in the video.

I really enjoyed this article since it clearly demonstrates what happened during the competion, the excientment, the stress and everything in between. It was very exciting to relieve the dance competion but next time maybe hainvg picture of some other grades since i know a lot of them work hard of their dances adn hoped to see one of their members in a picture somewhere and that pictures allow the readers to have more of a inside look, making them experience seem more lively and happy. Thank you.
