Jonathan Law’s Homecoming dance was a rousing success. 

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, Homecoming outside in a tent with heaters this year and over 200 students attended. Homecoming brought a sense of normalcy back to school that had been missing the past couple of years.

“In my opinion, I thought Homecoming was awesome,” Principal Mr. Darcy said. “Students have been through so much the past two years and to just see you all have fun and be kids was great to see.”

Homecoming was a fun experience for all, but especially for the seniors who were excited to have a normal event at the school.

“Other than having to go to Homecoming because I helped organize it and checked students in, I went because it was my last,” senior Sophie Maselli said. ”I knew I would regret not going to my last homecoming, and encouraged my friends and everyone in my grade to go because of this, I wanted to attend one last school event with all grades before I graduated.”

While Homecoming was not in its usual setting, that did not stop students from still having a good time. 

“My favorite part of Homecoming was definitely dancing with my friends and taking funny photos with them,” sophomore Kiley Sherman said. 

The dance exceeded students’ expectations of what a Homecoming would be.  

“It exceeded my expectations, and I had a great time,” sophomore Will Luxeder said.  

Overall, Homecoming was a success and students all had a great time.  

“It was super fun, and I’m glad I went,” sophomore Isabella Gecaj said.
