This Just In: Togas are ALL the Rage

From the olden Greek streets to your local hallways, you'll see people rocking the Toga look. High School seniors of Bucksport High got into their "school spirit" this past Tuesday, and rocked a bed sheet as their main attire. Whether it was newly purchased for the occasion or ripped off the bed that morning, you couldn't miss them if they were walking down the hall.


Why togas? You may be thinking at this point...Isn't this fashion statement a few hundred, thousand, even million centuries over by now?! Well, thanks to March Madness, the majority of the senior class was rocking this ancient fashion statement. March Madness is similar to the fall shindig at Bucksport High, homecoming week. Each event lasts a week, and encourage the students to dress in goofy costumes every day. Homecoming week consisted of a "hick" day, which didn't require many students to dress any differently than a usual day for them. "Nerd" day, lots of fake glasses were purchased at iParty that previous weekend. "Theme" day, each grade having a different theme, Seniors having "Halloween".


"Gender-bender" day, switching up the norms and putting a guy in a dress and some baggy pants on a girl. And lastly, purple and gold day, celebrating the good ole' Buck pride of course. This time around, during March Madness, a "Pajama" day kicked off the week, making it that much easier to deal with a Monday. "Party" day, each grade having a different party. Freshman having St. Patrick's Day, sophomores having Mardi Gras, juniors having high lighter and seniors having the previously mentioned togas. Following up party day was Summer day, in the middle of the winter, and then color day after that. Each grade rocked a different color on color day, Seniors having the infamous black. And to end the week of festivities, the Buck pride is shown again through our purple and gold themed day. From Togas, to colors, to sporting the good ole' "Buck" pride, you'll be seeing an unfamiliar sight if you chose to visit Bucksport High this week folks.
