Homecoming week
With students dressing up as cowboys, aliens, astronauts and competing in relay races and limbo competitions at lunch, Homecoming was a celebration that lasted all week. From Nov. 2 to Nov. 6, students were encouraged to dress up and participate in spirit days and lunch competitions hosted by Leadership in anticipation for the Homecoming game on Nov. 6. The spirit day themes were Neon Attack, Twisted Time Travel, Cowboys vs Aliens, Spaced Out, and Patriot Pride. During lunch from Monday Nov. 2 to Thursday Nov. 5, Leadership students held a Class Olympics at lunch, where representatives from each class competed in competitions such as hula hooping and relay racing, ending off with a lunch pep rally on Friday, Nov. 6 to get students in spirit for the Homecoming game.

Although COVID-19 restrictions caused homecoming week to be altered by moving the pep rally outside during lunch, changing the homecoming dance and Powder Puff game to a later date, and limiting the number of people that attended the football game, leadership still found ways to allow students to have a week to celebrate homecoming. “Even though I didn’t like it [pep rally] as much, I’m still glad that we were able to show school spirit in at least one way,” Joseph said.](https://brantleybanner.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/friday-pep-rally_11_6_20_martindale-475x356.jpg)
