spirit. Less crowds If people went they
were smoking. Not paying attention

students/parents and even people who come to just watch the games.
People get into the games. A lot going on at the games
like the band playing the cheerleaders cheer and the poms dancing.

stricter. Home cooked
meals every night. Dads worked

depend on themselves to make their own meals.
