No matter what school you go to, Homecoming week is one of the biggest weeks of the school year. And no matter what school you go to they all run the same way. Same process, same happenings, and same concept. Here at St. Joseph High School, we make an effort to make our Homecoming week the most competitive and exciting as possible. Every year we always have a rivalry team from a different school that we are determined to beat. Because we don't have a football team, our basketball team takes over and defends our Homecoming title. Everyone at St. Joseph knows to support our boys and we do it well.
On Monday, we kick it off with a big Mass up in the gym and wear our gold and red school uniforms. On Tuesday, the theme this year is Mathlete. You can either choose to dress up as an athlete, nerd, or a combination of both. Wednesday is always Wacky Wednesday. You get to mix and match colors, clothes, accessories, shoes.. anything you'd like just as long as it's wacky. THURSDAY is always the biggest day because it's everyones favorite... PAJAMA DAY!!! The students and faculty are allowed to wear their pajamas or sleepwear to school. Of course it must be at modest length but we pretty much dress in sweats and a Tee. Now when it comes to Friday... it's the BIG DAY! Game day and pep rally day. Classes are to wear their t-shirts they designed promoting their class slogan and color with Jeans.
Cardinal Cafe is also another big Homecoming event. Cardinal Cafe is a huge fundraiser event particularly for the junior class to help them pay for prom that they're in charge of. They sell pizza, root beer floats, coke floats, banana splits, and soft drinks. It happens during the evening and all are invited. Students, their families, faculty, and staff. It's always a big bang every year since everyone makes it successful by supporting.
DON'T FORGET TO GRAB A SIGN AND JOIN THE CARDINAL NATION ON SATURDAY NIGHT AT 7PM TO ROOT ON OUR BOYS IN THEIR HOMECOMING GAME AGAINST HILO HIGH!
If you would like to watch the Homecoming Court present their dance to the public it starts at 6 :)
