FHS Homecoming next weekend

Posted

Fayette High School will host its traditional Homecoming this year, but the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will force a few changes to be made. There will be no class floats and junior high athletes and cheerleaders will not be featured in the parade.

The award-winning high school marching band will continue to be a mainstay of the parade, scheduled for the afternoon of Oct. 2. 

Instead of riding in convertibles, Homecoming royalty will ride in pickup trucks to allow for recommended distancing. Only senior football players will ride atop two fire trucks. Freshman, sophomore, and junior players will ride on flatbed trailers. 

No candy will be thrown to onlookers. 

The traditional afternoon assembly will take place on the football field rather than the FHS gym and will be only for high school students this year. 

The Homecoming King and Queen will be crowned as normal during halftime of the football game against conference foe Paris.
