March Madness

The bell rings and students file out of classrooms heading to their next class. Its just another ordinary day at EBHS, but hold on a minute something is different. Almost everyone is wearing pyjamas. Everywhere you look fleece pants, sweatpants, flanel pyjamas, footsie pyjamas. Did everyone oversleep today?

Nope, march madness has simply returned to EBHS. Its time for crazy costumes, face paint, shamrocks, and school spirit once again. Its time for fierce competition between the classes; for the freshman to get smushed and the seniors to rein triumphant. Most of all however, its time for the junior class to step up.

The current March Madness standings place the junior class in fourth just ahead of the freshman and below the faculty. As upperclassmen this standing is beyond pathetic and the old excuse, "Why try, its rigged anyway," isn't going to work anymore. If it was really rigged, why are we loosing?

Many juniors dress up in the craziest costumes and make march madness as fun as possible, but others simply don't even try. Perhaps its because they are too shy or because they don't have any school pride-true EBHS is falling down-but I say, "Shut the Shamrock Up!" March Madness is a chance to have some fun in school and beat the monotony of the long month of March-and for the upperclassmen to crush freshman. SO COME ON JUNIORS! LET THOSE SHAMROCKS SHINE!
