There has been lots of controversy over class colors and Homecoming. DHS has had class colors for over 40 years, and now the school is thinking of getting rid of it. Freshmen color is white, Sophomore color is grey, Junior color is red, and the Seniors color is black. The big argument has been brought on by the Seniors hazing the Freshmen. Some people say that the colors single out one class (the Freshmen) and it makes them and easy target. The Seniors have waited four years to get to wear their class color, for us it's a symbol of power and leadership. I do believe that the colors don't unify the school, but it unifies the class. As a Freshman I didn't know a lot of people in my grade so having a class color day it was easy to pick out who people were in my class. At the pep rally we all came together and cheered as a class and it made me feel part of something bigger. As a Senior I know I'm not really friends with all of the people in my class, but at pep rally I fell like everyone is friends with everyone, because of something as simple as what grade you are in.
That's why I feel that class colors are a good thing in our school. The pep rally is for the classes, and the game is for the school as a whole.
