Homecoming Assemblies

 By Nick Loeffelholz


This year’s homecoming was a great, yet fun success and everyday of the week, students dressed up and went to each of the day’s assemblies.

The first day of homecoming week, the main attraction was how to brush your teeth like a Spartan. Zach Koger (Senior), one of the contestants, comments, “It was a very interesting contest and after that my whole face smelled like toothpaste,”

Xavier Lopez (Senior) also added, “It was awesome watching everyone having fun and supporting their class.” Tuesday was eat like a Spartan, where students would embarrass themselves trying to eat “like a Spartan.”

Wednesday was the day everyone was looking forward to the classes went up against each other in Rue ball. The Junior girls and the Senior guys came out victorious. Sadly, they ended up running out of time to finish the grand finale match between the junior girls, Senior guys, women staff, and the men staff. This resulted in a postponement until Friday where the final match would decide who would take the victory.

Thursday’s assembly activity was lip sync like a Spartan where students went out there and performed to earn those points for their class. “It was quite entertaining and hilarious,” says Nick Frederick (Senior).

Friday was Crazy Spartan Spirit Day where everyone dressed up in their Sparta gear to support the football team for their homecoming game. Also the Rue Ball game was continued and finished, the Junior girls were the first ones to go. Quickly after, the women staff ran out of points and came out of the game. It was just down to the Senior guys and the men staff. The Senior guys couldn’t hang on so the men staff came away with the victory.

Homecoming week was a total success. Everyone had a blast showing their true Sparta colors and supported their class the best they could. Hopefully next year, Sparta High School will have the same Spartan experience everyone had this year.
