Showtime: HOCO Week is Coming!

October 12-16 is Showtime. Dress up Monday as a celebrity, Wednesday as a decade, Friday as red carpet or streetwear. Three themes, endless possibilities.

Monday: Star Struck

Pick your favorite celebrity and dress up like them! Whether it’s a musician, actor, athlete, or icon, channel your inner superstar. The more recognizable, the better—let’s see who can spot which celebrity you are!

Wednesday: Showstopper Decades

Choose any decade from the 70s through the 2000s and dress the part! Go groovy from the 70s, totally rad in the 80s, chill in the 90s, or Y2K it up. Dress solo or coordinate with friends for that full decade vibe.

Friday: Spotlight or Streetwear

Pick a side! Go glam with an elegant, red-carpet-ready outfit, or rock the casual cool of streetwear—think sneakers, hoodies, graphic tees, and relaxed or oversized pants. Either way, own your look.

Pep Rally

We wrap up Homecoming week on Friday with a pep rally at 11:40 a.m. Come ready to cheer on our athletes, celebrate our student leaders, and get hyped for the weekend.

Dress-Up Expectations

We encourage students to participate in dress-up days with creativity and school spirit! While dressing for these fun occasions, students are expected to use good judgment and maintain a standard of modesty. Please follow the guidelines below:

Dress-up days are not free dress days. If you choose not to participate, you are expected to wear your school uniform.

  • Shorts must have at least a 7-inch inseam.
  • Shorter skirts or dresses must be worn with leggings underneath.
  • Yoga pants, tank tops, spaghetti straps, and strapless tops are not permitted.
  • Leggings may only be worn if paired with a skirt or dress.
  • Midriffs and undergarments must remain covered, even during movement.
  • Clothing should reflect modesty and appropriateness.

Our goal is to keep the focus on school spirit, fun, and community while upholding a standard of modesty and respect. Faculty, staff, and admin may ask a student to change if they determine the outfit is inappropriate for school. Dress code consequences will apply as if it were a normal uniform day.
