Homecoming Details
The Dance
Homecoming tickets go on sale this week! During all three lunches, stop by the Leadership room (C-132) to buy your ticket for this Saturday’s big event. Tickets are $15, and you must not be on academic probation to be eligible to buy a ticket. If you aren’t eligible, see Dean Mitchell as soon as possible to make a plan!
The Homecoming dance takes place from 8-11pm this Saturday in the AHS gymnasium. We will start letting people in at 8 exactly, but the line gets long way before that! Please bring a photo ID to help get you into the dance sooner; otherwise, it takes a lot longer to check that it’s you! All coats and purses need to be checked into Coat Check upon arriving; you cannot bring anything into the dance floor. If you are concerned about this, please reach out to administration. Remember: once you leave the dance, for safety concerns, you are not allowed back in! Plan your evening ahead of time.
Join AHS for the Annual Homecoming Parade
Join us for the Homecoming parade at 4:30 at Ella White! Whether you walk with your class/club or watch the alumni and court drive by on 3rd Avenue, be sure not to miss it! Let’s get as many students there as possible!
If you have any questions, please reach out to Mr. Thatcher!
Get your class color shirt at Campus Closet so you are ready for Friday's Assembly.
