What a Homecoming Week, Jacket Nation!

It was so much fun seeing so many students and teachers dress up and show their school spirit as we celebrated homecoming last week!

One of our favorite moments is always the Students vs. Teachers volleyball game. Our teachers huddled up, the stands were packed, and everyone had a blast on the court!

What was your favorite moment from homecoming? Let us know! 💛🖤
