Led by Jackie Mayne (’28), eighth grade students participate in tug-of-war. Color Wars consisted of four activities — tug-of-war, mural decorating, door decorating and a relay race — in which students from different grade levels competed against each other to win Spirit Points. “It was really exciting because it’s just a fun way to show grade spirit, and it’s a fun way to bond with your friends,” Charlotte Stein (’26) said. “I think that the tug-of-war is always a highlight for Color Wars since we’ve been with the great rivalry, and then on the faculty comes in — I think that’s always a fun event.”
