Our Homecoming Parade will be held on Wednesday, September 14th and will begin at 6PM. The parade will start at Hendricks Elementary School and end at the SHS tennis courts. Each grade will be represented by a float decorated with that grade’s chosen Cinematic Theme.

Themes are:

● Freshmen and the Chocolate Factory;

● Sophomores staring in Teen Beach Movie;

● Juniors Flying in with Aladdin; and

● Our Seniors Are Taking a Trip to Hawkins with Stranger Things.

Floats will be displayed at the homecoming game as well. If you would like to help decorate your

grade’s float or hallway, please speak with Mrs. Tillison.

What better way to prepare for the big game than with the annual Powderpuff flag football

game?! For those who don't know, powderpuff is designed to showcase your team’s skill, speed,

ability and cunningness. Each grade will fight for the coveted top spot and a point towards this

year’s class cup. Will this year be another upset or will last year's winners, the Seniors, take the

championship again? Don't worry gentlemen, the girls won't get all the spotlight. This year we

are adding "pep squads" to our homecoming line-up. These squads will be tasked with cheering

their girls to victory. The best squad will be recognized while also earning a point towards the

class cup. The game will be held on the football field directly following the Homecoming Parade.

If you are interested in participating in this Golden Bear tradition, fill out the correct form on

Google Classroom. To participate in either event, a Powderpuff T-shirt must be purchased by clicking the link https://www.itsazshirt.com/shsppfb22/shop/home

Lastly, and definitely the most awaited, is the Homecoming Dance! The dance will be held on

Saturday, September 17th from 8:00-11:00 pm. It will take place in the cafeteria here at the

school. This dance is semi-formal. Sorry, no jeans. Tickets for the dance will go on sale September 2nd. $10 for one or $15 for two.

You must purchase a ticket before the dance and follow all school policies while in attendance.
