We are already a month into the new school year! Last year, we were not able to have a traditional homecoming week. While we enjoyed the spirit week activities that our amazing student council put together, we are so excited to have a full homecoming week starting today!
Students can sign up to be involved with banner painting, boat building, float making (for our first annual Homecoming K-12 parade this year), dance decorations, blue tube, and sidewalk chalk. Each class will work on these all week long and integrate their theme into it. Every day counts — grades can earn points for having a high percentage dress up with that day’s theme. At the end of the week, judges score each activity for who did best and it goes on the master homecoming scoreboard.
Here’s the lineup for our high school homecoming week:

We cherish this time as a chance for our students to work together as grades. This not only brings a lot of fun, chaos, and energy to the high school for the week, provides an opportunity for students to work together and enjoy friendship. Classes cannot succeed without strategizing each event and working together–what a great opportunity for students to showcase their unique talents!
