Palms Pride & Spirit Week
Every Friday is Spirit Day. Palms students are encouraged to wear green and white, or wear a Palms-logo T-shirt or hoodie, to show your school spirit.
Palms gear can usually be purchased on Back-to-School Night and at other school events.
Spirit Week is held twice in each semester. Students show their school spirit by dressing up or participating in special activities. Spirit Weeks are organized by Leadership.
Check the School Calendar for the dates of Spirit Weeks. Sometimes Spirit Week will be shorter than a full week, for example when it's Thanksgiving week or the week of Veteran's Day.

College Day
College Day is the last Friday school day before the annual UCLA-USC football game. Because of the strong crosstown rivalry, administrators, teachers, and students are encouraged to show their support for their favorite sports team.
Every year on College Day, the Palms Band serenades other classes by playing the UCLA Fight Song. Hear the song, played by the Palms Band, and by the UCLA Band, in these videos.
