Everyone’s ecstatic about showing their school spirit by participating in our homecoming activities.

"We are very excited about planning, changing and creating a whole new look for homecoming this year; I can’t wait to see how everything is going to turn out," said Miss Decker, SGA advisor.

Everyone thinks that it is vital to make some changes to our old favorites, like the dance.

Tierra Smith, the SGA president says, "The theme [for the dance is] Randallstown’s black affair; we [will be] very strict about the dress code this year. So, please do not come to the door with a ticket thinking you are going to get in with athletic wear or inappropriate clothing."

Students will not be admitted to the dance (even with a ticket) if they are wearing any of the following: jeans, tennis shoes, t-shirts, short shorts, or mini skirts. Consider this event to be business casual/semi-formal.

There will be a number of faculty members and administrators chaperoning the dance, and SGA members are also recruiting parents to help make sure the homecoming dance runs smoothly, "no less than 15 chaperones," will be in attendance says Miss Decker.

"We want the students at the dance to represent the school with dignity and self respect," said Miss Decker. Another important change is that the dance will take place in the cafeteria this year.

In an attempt to increase student involvement, expect some creative themes for spirit week.

"We are also looking to increase community/family support and attendance, particularly at the parade, game, and as chaperones at the dance. We want the student body to feel proud that they attend Randallstown High School," Ms. Decker explained.

Homecoming tickets will be on sale during all lunch shifts during spirit week. The cost for each ticket is $5. When students purchase a ticket to the dance and/or football game, they will also get a ticket to Fridays’ pep rally. Only one pep rally ticket per student.
