This year, Morgan’s Homecoming festivities include some new events along with the activities enjoyed for years.
The Homecoming Dance is taking place on Saturday, November 10th at 7-10pm. This year’s theme for homecoming is a harvest autumn theme. According to Sophomore Ciro Falanga, the “color schemes of the night will be browns, oranges, yellows, dark reds, black and colors associated with Thanksgiving.” Ciro also shared that students sent a playlist to the DJ to ensure “some really good dancing songs that have a nice active rhythm which will keep you up and moving instead of just bouncing to a rhythm-less club beat.”
