VIDEO - HOMECOMING THEME (9/3/24-9/6/24) CLARA TO FILM] PLEASE REDOWNLOAD THE SLIDE, INCORRECT INFO
Hey Hilo High! Are you ready to ignite your spirit, dive into the deep, soar high, or ground yourself here at Hilo High? No matter how you show your pride, it’s time to unleash your inner element at our upcoming homecoming!
This year's theme, "The Elements of Hilo High," celebrates the different parts that make up our school, just like the Earth is made up of different elements that work in harmony to create our beautiful planet.
Long ago, people believed there were four main elements: fire, water, earth, and air. Besides making up everything on our planet, these elements also represent different parts of life:
Water represents adaptability and change. Earth represents stability and strength, Fire represents energy and passion for life, and air represents movement, freedom, and new ideas!
Seniors, your class has chosen the element of Water, juniors, you have chosen earth, sophomores have chosen fire, and Freshmen have chosen air!
Homecoming is the week of September 30th to October 4th, so get ready for a week filled with AWESOME events, from class dances and games to dress-up days and MORE!!! We can’t wait to see how you show off your class and Viking Pride at this year’s Homecoming!!!
