Seniors, juniors, sophomores and freshmen watch the goings-on at last year’s Irish Games at Notre Dame in Pontiac.
Irish Week includes special activities, liturgies, hall decorations and concludes with Thursday-Friday athletic-and-skills competitions between classes called the Irish Games, which pit class against class in a series of games ranging from Balloon Stomp to Plunger Relay.
Last year, the senior class earned the highest score of the high school games, followed by the freshmen, juniors and sophomores. At the school's middle and lower divisions, students participate in their own version of the Irish Games.
Go Irish!
