Mrs. Gum, impersonating E.T., excitingly pedals her tricycle. Her basket contains all of her materials for work.

From laundry baskets to guitar cases, Anything But a Bag Day sparks laughter and shows off everyone’s unique style. This special addition marks its debut and supplies a creative twist to Spirit Week. On Wednesday, Oct. 30, students ditched traditional bags and carried their books and supplies through unconventional means.
