Why: To honor alumni of St. Ignatius and celebrate our school pride and colors
Definition (according to Wikipedia) Homecoming is an annual tradition of the United States. People, towns, high schools and colleges come together, usually in late September or early October, to welcome back alumni and former residents. It is built around a central event, such as a banquet and, most often, a game of American football, or, on occasion, basketball, ice hockey or soccer. When celebrated by schools, the activities vary widely. However, they usually consist of a football game played on a school's home football field, activities for students and alumni, a parade featuring the school's marching band and sports teams, and the coronation of a Homecoming Queen (and at many schools, a Homecoming King). A dance commonly follows the game.
Mission's celebration is not far off of the Wikipedia definition. Below is the schedule of events. We invite the community and our stakeholders to join us in this celebration. GO BULLDOGS!
