Decades Day homecoming week celebration

Can you guess the decade when poodle skirts were popular with teenage girls?

These elementary teachers, who may be a little past their teen years, sport poodle skirts for Decades Day at the Ada Schools on Wednesday as part of Homecoming Spirit Week.

The one-color, easy-to-sew skirts were popular in the 1950. Models are (from left) Melissa Gossard, Rachel Ludwig, and Heather Etgen.
