Everyone claims that their high school is "the best." They may have a good football team or a top-notch cafeteria. They may have the best technology, or even the coolest teachers. Not one school has the spirit that Pascack Valley has. We are the indians, and we are the best high school. Case Closed. Here are some signs to truly test if you are a Pascack Valley Indian:

1. You never missed a football game. Rain or shine you were there with green paint all over your face and body.

2. You've been to met life stadium at least once, to see our football team become state champs.

3. If you weren't at the ridge after a football game, did you even go here?

4. You could not walk into class without seeing someone with an iced DunkinDonuts coffee, or a Kens sandwich.

5. You went to Creccos, Ronnies, or Kens at lunch, and if you got there five minutes late you know you wouldn't make it back for class on time.

6. Speaking about making it to class on time; if you showed up to school at 8:01 you know you were waiting in the "late line" for at least fifteen minutes.

7. The school gave you a Mac for "educational purposes" but you spent most of the time on it online shopping, or watching Netflix.

8. Seeing Audis, Mercedes, and BMWs in the school parking lot was nothing unusual.

9. Getting a snow day when there is barley an inch of snow on the ground, but having to go in during the middle of a blizzard.

10. You had a "virtual school day" and did more work during that one day than any other day of the school year.

11. You've skipped school on St.Patricks Day to go to the parade in the city, and have even seen some teachers there as well.

12. You've gone to the cliffs to "enjoy the scenery" but really to take pictures that you would end up posting on Instagram.

13. You've skipped class just to hang out with Buesser in the main office and talk about life.

14. You have either been injured in gym class, or have injured someone in gym class all because of an innocent game of PinBall.

15. Getting to leave school early the day of prom just so the girls can get to their hair/makeup appointments on time.

16. Parking in someone else's parking spot on a cold or rainy day only because you're too lazy to walk from your own.

17. Looking foward to Valley Cup as a freshman, and not even trying by the time you get to senior year.

18. Telling the freshman there is a pool on the roof (they actually believe it).

19. You're friends with people from all grades and get along like a family.

20. You cried on graduation day and at your last football game. You cried because you left behind all the memories you have made in a short four years. You cried because you lost your second home, your family, and your best friends. We are the indians. We are Pascack Valley. We are your family. We are your home. Most of all, we are the BEST high school imaginable.
