Ask me about Crystal traditions! The traditions here are not only my favorite things about Crystal but also, in part, why I chose to come here! I have been a part of the Crystal community for about eight years since my sister began as a 6th grader. I experienced and anticipated, second hand, the many traditions throughout the year that would light her up. When I became a 6th-grade student, it was my turn to be part of the fun. I was finally able to be a part of the old traditions while now having a voice in creating some of my own.  I can happily talk about the many traditions I have experienced firsthand, like Snow Day, Lip Sync, Homecoming, and Elimination, which are my favorites! I can also talk about those I have witnessed secondhand, such as the Senior / Junior Kidnap, the Fine Arts Festival, and the Dance Sleepover.
