School Homecomings

What is a School Homecoming: School homecoming is the tradition of welcoming back former students and celebrating a school’s existence, along with a homecoming football game.

History of School Homecoming: Homecoming is an old American college tradition, for which the current students of an institution select a king and queen and they create spirit displays, floats, and banners designs to promote the school spirit and welcome the alumni back to campus.

Why do we celebrate Homecoming in Schools: We celebrate to show school spirit and support whatever athletic teams and clubs are going on during that time of period. All of this encourages students and alumni to have school spirit and pride.

Why is it called Homecoming Game: It is called Homecoming Game because the football game is the main homecoming attraction. There is usually a huge crowd and lots of energy, so the pressure is on for the home team to win. They usually make so much noice so that the team can crush the competition.

Homecoming Etiquette:  Homecoming, which takes place every fall, is a very important high school event. Although traditions may vary by school, it is typically defined by a football game followed by a semi-formal dance. There may even be a parade or a school spirit week in conjunction with the occasion. Some schools may also use it as a time to welcome back alumni for a special dinner or reunion. During high school homecoming, there are special rules of etiquette students should follow.

Reflection: I think that homecoming is important because you get to meet new  people and talk to them so you can know a little bit more. Another thing is that you get to dance all you want with your new and old friends, you even get to reunite with others.
