Members of the Link Crew will be coming into 9th grade classes this week talking about Homecoming, its activities and some of the "traditions." The most important piece of information is that the football game and the dance are open to everyone. You do not need a date. The vast majority of students attend the game and dance as a group. It is not unusual for a group of girls or boys to arrive at the dance together and have a great time with all their fellow students.

Student Council put together a "power pack" (to first 500) with discount prices to game and the dance for both singles and couples. The power pack includes, in addition to tickets to game and dance, popcorn, long-sleeve Lakers tshirt and a Lackers backpack. $30 for singles and $58 for couples. They will sell more singles tickets than they do couples.
The students do not need to rent a hotel room. They do not need to attend a private party in a hotel room. There is no Southwest tradition for this to happen. Yes, it does happen, There are families who provide the credit card for a room at some downtown hotel. That is NOT a school function or any part of a school function.
The dances are usually fun times for all. We try to play a variety of music and put together an evening the students will talk about for years. Many freshman attend since this is their first opportunity at a real "high school" event. Student Council sponsers the dance.
Chaperons are always needed and welcome. Call the Volunteer Center for more informamtion.
