Homecoming, a tradition that’s been around for centuries. A tradition that brings out the school spirit of most high schools. A tradition that will most likely keep being passed down from one generation to the next.

“I like homecoming,” said senior cheerleader Alexandria Agredano, “the parade, the pep rally, the dance, the football game. It’s so much fun and brings us together as a school.”

A school is controlled by the staff, which is made up of teachers and other staff members, that control attendance or work as secretaries. Homecoming doesn’t only affect students that attend the high school but also the staff.

“I hope you play hard this Friday at the football game,” POD teacher Mr. Gonzalez said to senior football player Rudy Vargas.

Homecoming affects seniors, more than it affects underclassmen though. Seniors tend to attend homecoming and participate more than underclassmen.

“Homecoming means more to seniors,” said math teacher Mr. Nishimoto, “because it’s their last.”
