Molly Limaye ’21, Madison Hanssens ’21, Kristen Weil ’21: Many students were outraged to hear that during spirit week, “Groutfit Day” will replace the lounge theme dress up day. The idea of “Groutfit Day” was that each grade would wear a different color, but only that one color. Students have expressed their concern that “Groutfit Day” would take away their creativity and self expression. Jalin Meacham ‘19 commented, “I would rather have lounge theme because it gives you the opportunity to express yourself in that theme and you can really go all out with the lounge theme .”

Seniors want to keep the lounge theme tradition that they have had for the past three years. Lauren Rodio ’18 states “We put all of the work in the night before and we rally as a class presenting our lounge the next day.” Josie Konopka, ‘18 agrees in saying , “The lounge theme really shows our class pride.” Seniors, especially would like the oppurtuity to dress like their lounge for the last time in their Episcopal careers, as other senior classes have before them.”
