Following a fun-filled spirit week is the Homecoming Game this Friday, November 1st at 7 p.m against Roselle Park.

For the attire:

  • Students and Faculty are to wear Orange
  • Parents and Alumni to wear Royal Blue

We hope to not only fill the stands with a sea of these colors, but also to cheerfully resonate our sense of pride, community, spirit and tradition! 

The culminating event of the week, the Homecoming Dance, will take place on Saturday at 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. The attire is black, silver, and white. A ticket prior to the event will cost $7.00, and the price at the door will be $10.00.

Support your community and show your spirit, go Bulldogs!
