Homecoming WeeK

Homecoming Week is its own silliness and series of traditions (meaning we did it last year) and new stories. There is a theme each day and the students are encouraged (by Student Council) to interpret that theme for that day. Monday is Tacky Wacky -- I think that is a fashion statement; Tuesday is Harry Potter; Wednesday is favorite color and Thursday is Purple.

In the meantime we strive to maintain some type of "regular" school day. At the same time we have Student Council elections for grade 9 through 12 and on Wednesday is the Class of 2010 picture in the Stadium. Thursday is a day with shorter periods and pep fest at the end of the day.

Friday is Parent Teacher Conference and there is no school for students. There are Alumni activities on Friday.

The week is a school week and we will expect reasonable control from our students. You might want to chat about what is fun and what is not really that appropriate for school. One thing we do not want is for students to feel embarrassed or uncomfortable from the activities of others.
