It’s the week of Homecoming, and leading up to the dance and game on Friday, Links will wear different themed outfits for Spirit Week.

On Mismatch Monday wear your most mixed up outfit. Everyone’s outfits should be conflicting, bizarre, and diverse.  Grab your best friend and coordinate your looks on Twinning Tuesday. Have a favorite book or movie? Well on Character Wednesday you can dress like your favorite character from Ariel to Zazu.  Let’s go back to the mid-1960s and embrace your inner hippie on Tie-Dye Thursday. Everyone grab your LHS merch for LHS Pride Friday. Each grade sports a different LHS color: 9th grade wears white, 10th wears gray, 11th wears black, 12th wears red.

Homecoming is on Friday, September 21, 2018. Tickets for the dance go on sale Tuesday at lunch and after school. Ticket prices are $5 on Tuesday and Wednesday and the price goes up to $10 on Thursday. Tickets will not be sold on Friday.  The theme for the dance is Friday Night Fever so break out your disco gear and get ready to get funky.

There is a new entrance for the dance this year. You will enter through door #29 (the pool hallway door). Drinks and snacks will be also be sold.

For a full list of rules and expectations, as well as procedures for bringing a non-LHS student date, check out this slideshow. 

The Homecoming Game starts at 6 p.m. at Beechner Field. Tickets are $4 for students, $6 for adults, free with an Activity Pass.

The second round of Homecoming royalty voting will take place Wednesday or Thursday, and nominees will be announced during halftime (see complete list below).

The Student Section theme is Jerseys.
