For more information see Ms Lyons in C2231.  Snacks and prizes will be provided!

Homecoming News:

  • Tomorrow during both lunches redeem your blue spirit tickets at the Parthenon Market.
  • Tomorrow’s dress up day is Class Colors.  This is a competition for the Homecoming assembly so be sure to go all out:  Freshmen Caroline Blue, Sophomores White, Juniors Navy Blue and Seniors Togas.
  • Today is the last day for Pre-Sale Homecoming Tickets!   $15 cash only during both lunches. You may only bring one non-RV guest to the dance.  Buy early and avoid the $20 charge at the door.
  • One of RVs greatest traditions is our Powder Puff tournament, where the junior and senior girls will compete for the ultimate title:  Powder Puff Champ 2015!  Tonight right after school, head up at the baseball fields beginning at 3:30 p.m., and the fierce competition will begin!  Be sure to stop by at the concession stand to put your name in for a drawing for a free Homecoming ticket.
  • After the powder puff tournament be sure to stick around for the Bonfire from 7:30 – 9:00 p.m.  There will be a DJ, dancing, friends, hot chocolate and cookies.
