My freshman year, I discov- ered that in my World History class, the ceiling tiles are painted different flags from different nations. My sophomore year, I discovered that in one of the storage rooms underneath the stadium there are boxes and boxes of trophies and plaques from when Fayetteville High existed and won championships. Walking the halls is as exciting to me as attending a Friday night football game, or a boys' soccer game when they play a rival school. This is because of all the school spirit. Most schools have to have spirit day; every day at Terry San- ford is spirit day. Not a single day goes by where there aren't at least a hundred students are wearing a "FTS Bulldogs" shirt or dressing up for the game that they play in, no matter the sport. I'm certain that Terry Sanford has to have to most supportive students of their school. Students are not ashamed to say where they go and will go to almost any extent to show support for their school. I've seen everything from red and blue hair at a football game to a giant banner at a soccer game. If only everyone knew what it was like to attend Terry Sanford, they might show more respect to the school and maybe the students at other schools would appreciate their schools more. I'm not saying that Terry Sanford is the best school ever; however I'm saying it is one of the best. I'm absolutely thrilled to attend Terry Sanford and I, personally, would not want to attend any other high school in the county.
