What does your ideal fall season look like? As fall of 2025 quickly approaches, students adjust to the new season, one that many have been excited about for months. Students typically start the fall season with their iced pumpkin spice Starbucks drink as soon as the fall menu hits. Football games begin, pumpkin patches open, the school is decorated festively and students order their Halloween costumes. This is a season beloved by many.

To learn about what makes this season so special, two students shared their favorite parts of the fall.

Junior Clarrissa Raposo stated, “I love the fall weather and baking cookies or watching fall movies.”

Sophomore Lily Roche shared that, “My favorite part of fall is dressing up and hanging out with my friends. I also get to celebrate my birthday and I’m excited about getting my license. I love all of the fall snacks like pumpkin spice and everything. It’s overall just a very fun season.

The NDB community is extremely spirited during the fall season through various decorations, activities, and most importantly, Halloween Spirit Week. Halloween is coming up and students have ordered their costumes and made plans for the upcoming Halloween weekend. This season allows them to use their creativity to discover fun costumes to dress up in, both in school and out of school. This is a great holiday that students look forward to every year, enhancing their fall experiences.

Students are enjoying this current fall season and will continue to enjoy fall traditions as the season progresses. Whether it is the warmth of drinking a fall drink, the fun school events, or the changing scenery, this is a season that brings joy to many.
