For a long time at Prairie Ridge and other high schools in the district, Senior classes have had their own separate dress-up days for Homecoming week. It is naturally a week that is looked forward to by every student in the school. The class of 2015 remembers thinking as freshmen about how we couldn't wait to be Seniors and have the luxury of having our own, separate themes.
And now, out of now here, we are being told that Student Council is wanting to take away our dress-up days and make everyone do the same days. Now, keep in mind, no one (not even Student Council) can keep us from straying from the assigned dress-up days. But, it has been called to our attention by rumors that Student Council is not only trying to take away our separate days...but they are trying to give away the traditional dress-up days of Seniors to the entire school. These traditional dress-up days are Cross-Dress day and Senior citizen day. We have not waited an entire three years to become Seniors and have our traditional dress-up days given away to the rest of the students in the school who have not been here as long as we have and have not waited as long as we have. These dress-up days are some of the few perks of being Seniors and in our minds it is not fair for us to have them randomly taken away the second we become Seniors and especially after watching past Seniors dress-up and having such a fun time doing it. We have a right to follow tradition as Seniors.
Keep in mind that this is not only a petition for the class of 2015, but the entire student body and future students to come. You will all be Seniors one day too and you will all want something to make your Senior year the best that it can be. Please sign this petition (no matter what year you are) and help us and yourselves keep this Prairie Ridge tradition going. We need as many signatures as possible so spread the word!

The student council is ignoring the emails we have sent regarding our traditional dress-up days. Post the link to this petition on your Facebook wall today and tag the student council account. We need to show them that we will not let our seniority perks be handed out to the rest of the school.

We've seen seniors for three years now dress in funny crazy costumes is not our year to do the same. If they think they can take this away from us there wrong. There are more of us then them guys we need them to know we want this and have been waiting so long for it.
I think you need to be a senior to dress up as a "senior" citizen. That's kind of the whole joke.
The class of 2015 deserves this! Every other class of seniors got to do this, they should too!
Dressing up is definitely one of the things I'm looking forward to most as a senior
I also think that if everyone else can do these days they are going to be over it by the time senior year comes round and will not go all out and really embrace it because its not so special just a been there done that attitude. Senior spirit days are something fun and entertaining to see in the halls regardless if grade so I think the tradition is well worth the wait =}
It's a tradition, you can't mess with that.
IT'S A TRADITION
