Poland Seminary High School’s Homecoming is coming around the corner shortly. On Saturday, September 27 at 6:30-8:30pm the dance will be held in the high school’s gymnasium. Surrounded with music, picture taking, as well as a 1920’s jazz era theme draping the halls. Adding on, Poland’s Football Team plays against South Range for the annual football game. Before the 7:00 pm kick off, the homecoming king and queen will be crowned.
The 2025 Homecoming Advisor, Miss Rokicki, a math teacher at Poland Seminary, included her input for students of the freshman-senior classes about the upcoming event. Miss Rokicki took over for homecoming planning in 2023.
Reflecting on how to make the homecoming experience better, Rokicki stated, “We have a photo booth with 1920’s themed accessories also the same DJ as the previous year, and I would like people to stay until the crowning to announce homecoming king and queen.”
Overall, more energy and dancing along to the music is in high request.
Following up about the dance information, we asked what color dress would be seen most worn.
Rokicki said, “I think I will see lots of black.”
She also wanted to make known to students that feedback along with suggestions are greatly appreciated.
After interviewing freshmen to gather feedback for expectations of their first homecoming dance, Domenica Tukalo expressed, “For the event to be fun…”.
While another student, Brooklyn Kosko, stated, “To hang out and spend time with close friends.”
With both girls, butter yellow seemed to be a popular color after discussing their dress selections.
While on the topic of homecoming court Margaux Malloy, a senior representing the court was asked the following question.
What would winning queen mean to you?
Excitingly, Malloy stated, “To me, winning homecoming queen would be nothing short of an honor. The title is often brushed off as a popularity contest, but in my eyes it is a representation of the student body as a whole. Winning would show to me that I am valued and appreciated by my class at large, and that is more important than any crown. However, I believe all candidates are very deserving of this opportunity, so I will be excited with any outcome!”
Overall, Homecoming 2025 at Poland Seminary seems to have an overall positive outlook for the weekend coming up. Including, the Friday night lights game crowning king and queen and fun activities throughout as well as concluding the dance. All high school students make it a night to remember!
