A Week in Review: SHS Homecoming 2018

Written by: Lauren Groff 


From October 9th through October 12th, Sparta High School celebrated Spirit Week in excitement for the impending Homecoming weekend. Orchestrated by the SHS Student Council, the theme of the four-day school week was as follows:


Tuesday- Tie-Dye
Wednesday- Pajama Day
Thursday- Tropical/Rally of the Classes
Friday- Spartan Pride


Promoted through the Council`s group and multiple personal social media accounts, Spartans definitely did not disappoint!


Rally of the Classes


On Saturday night, the Spartan football team suffered a loss to the Randolph High School Rams with a score of 34-21 on their Saturday homecoming game. While the score may not have been what the student body had hoped for, the senior class members of Student Council were recognized for all of their work before the 1:00 pm kickoff.

The homecoming fun did not stop there, however. Promptly at 6:30 pm, students entered the SHS cafeteria, adorned with blue and white string lights and music from Sparta High School alum “DJ Kunal.” Complete with a complimentary water and cookie table, the dance lasted until 9:30pm and students of all grades thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity for a night to embrace school spirit and dance with their peers.


With Winter Formal and Prom being limited to upperclassmen only, Homecoming is the only dance where all grades are allowed admission. The students of SHS did not miss their chance to join in on the fun, parading around the dance floor.


A classic high school event across the country, both Spirit Week and Homecoming were a definite success for both the students and faculty of SHS.
