Some teachers love it. Some teachers dread it. Spirit Week usually involves some crazy socks, wacky hair, and the occasional coveted Decades Day. But what if we put a twist on this and sent it… underground?

This kind of Spirit Week is designed just for teachers—to build connection, creativity, and joy in a way that keeps you smiling all week. And the best part? Students love it just as much.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

✔️ What Underground Spirit Week actually looks like—and why teachers are secretly loving it

✔️ Creative, teacher-centered ideas you can use to start your own version (without a ton of chaos!)

✔️ How to turn it into a surefire morale booster for you and your teacher besties

If you're craving a little fun with your teacher buddies and want to do something just for YOU (ain't no shame in it)—this is your episode.
