Changes happening Homecoming seem to be the talk of the school.
The assembly and parade were moved from Wednesday to Friday, to boost school spirit for the game. The bonfire was Wednesday. Candidates were voted on Thursday.
There wasn’t a carnival this year. The issue with the carnival was that the student body has gotten too large to maintain.
“When students first heard there wasn’t going to be carnival they were upset,” Crist said. “Now they are starting to realize that if you’re building a float you can still participate.”
Not everyone is enthusiastic about not having the carnival.
“I think it’s ridiculous,” senior Alexis Williams said. “I don’t think it’s fair that they took away all the traditions in one year.”
Some think that canceling the carnival isn’t a bad thing.
“Kids that want to be involved are involved so they still get to participate,” English teacher Lindsey Prewitt said.
