Homecoming 2021

Hello Warhawks! 

It’s Homecoming Spirit Week….and that means dress-up days, school spirit, an all-school assembly, a “big game” and a dance! With all of those activities, we wanted to send out a few reminders, since it’s been a while since we’ve hosted all of these great events: 

SPIRIT DAYS

  • Any costumes, decorations, etc. must be appropriate for the school environment. Please see the dress code in the GHS Handbook if you have concerns, or ask a staff member.

  • Any signs, stickers, photos, etc. posted in the hallways or on lockers must be approved (and stamped as approved). Unapproved items will be removed.  

PEP ASSEMBLY

  • Students must go to their 6th period class on Friday prior to the assembly. Attendance will be taken. Students will be dismissed by an announcement.

  • Staff will be posted throughout the building to ensure that students make it to the assembly in a timely manner.  

  • Students who do not wish to attend the assembly must have their absence excused by a parent/guardian via a phone call to the attendance office. 

  • Students are to remain with their grade level in the bleachers unless they are participating in the activities. Students will not be allowed onto the Fieldhouse floor. 

  • Students whose behavior is inappropriate or otherwise disruptive during the assembly may be subject to removal from the assembly and all subsequent Homecoming activities, including the dance.

FOOTBALL GAME

  • Mechanical noisemakers are prohibited by WIAA rules. 

  • Please cheer positively for our Warhawks and not against the opposing team or officials. 

  • Demonstrate appropriate school spirit and display good sportsmanship. 

  • No carry in food or drinks are permitted. 

  • Backpacks or other bags are prohibited. 

HOMECOMING DANCE

  • Main Gym doors will open promptly at 7:00 P.M. Doors will lock at 8:00 P.M. No student/guests will be admitted after 8:00 P.M. Entry is through Door 14. 

  • All students and guests need to present a photo ID to enter. GHS students are required to present their student ID for scanning. Students and guests must enter together. 

  • All students and guests will be subject to random breath testing to check for the presence of alcohol. Those who refuse will not be permitted to enter.

  • Law enforcement will be contacted if it is suspected that a student/guest is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. 

  • All purses/bags will be checked by a member of our staff prior to student/guest entry. 

  • Any prescription medication should be in its original container. 

  • All vehicles in our parking lot are subject to search. 

  • High heeled shoes are not permitted on the floor of the main gym. A purse/shoe check will be available.

  • Once a student/guest leaves the dance, there is no re-entry allowed. 

  • Parents are requested to pick up their students in a timely manner; the dance ends at 10:00 P.M. 

We would like to thank you in advance for your cooperation and support as we work to create a memorable Homecoming experience for all students. 

Go Warhawks!
