Hi everyone,
my seventh week in the USA was homecoming week!
It is basically the week before homecoming: everyday there's a different dress code that the students have voted for and also a different event.
Homecoming is the Saturday night's dance where everyone is dressed up with fancy clothes. The word 'homecoming' should mean that the people that have graduated in the past years come back to their school, but it's basically a dance for the high school's students.
Before week starts, some students have painted the windows of the entrance of the school and of the gym based on what the homecoming theme is. This year the theme in my high school is Red Carpet🎥👗
This year, my school's dress codes are:
- Monday: Black/White Day
- Tuesday: Character Day
- Wednesday: Wacky Wednesday
- Thursday: Throwback Thursday
- Friday: Purple and Gold Day (which are the school's colors)
The main events are:
- Tuesday: Powder Puff which is a soccer game where random girls from the school play soccer divided in teams by their classes
- Wednesday: Powder Ruff which is a volleyball game where random boys from the school play volleyball divided in teams by their classes
- Friday: Homecoming Assembly in the morning where the dance team performs, the band plays, all the teams and the Homecoming Court walk, and the king and queen are 'crowned'. Football game at 6 p.m.
- Saturday: Dance from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.
I'm super excited!!!
