The Eagle Times

Homecoming week with all of its festivities has flown by once again, and the week was ended with the homecoming dance. The homecoming dance was held on October 27, 2007 at the St. John Cafeteria. This year’s theme was, “A Dream Come True”. Faculty, students, family, and friends arrived around 8:30 p.m. to take pictures and watch the homecoming court make their walk. This year’s homecoming court had the fifteen football players and fifteen senior girls. The court was presented around 8:45, along with last year’s king and queen, Ms. Katie Daigle and Mr. Zach Leblanc.

A lot of effort was put into homecoming week by Student Council. On the Friday afternoon before the dance, Student Council decorated the cafeteria with lights, banners, yard card decorations from each class, and more. The D.J. for this year’s dance was D.J. Koolaid. Everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves and have a great time at the dance.

After speaking with many members of the senior class of 2008 about their last homecoming, their overall response was that they had a really good time. When asked to comment on the dance, senior Kaylyn Raffray replied, “I had a really good time at the dance and it was very nicely decorated.” Senior Marlyn Voiselle said, “I had a lot of fun and my last homecoming was very memorable.”

This year, the faculty was very strict on girls’ dresses. In the past, homecoming has always had rules that girls’ dresses could not be provocative. This year, the rules were enforced to a whole new level. Faculty members were standing at door checking for low cut dresses, dresses too short, and anything that made your dress inappropriate. They were not afraid to send anyone home from the dance.
