MELISSA SKOPCZYNSKI: Truman Homecoming caps a busy week



By Melissa Skopczynski
Truman High School Principal

Wow, what a week.

Homecoming can be very stressful for students and staff alike but when it is all said and done it is a very rewarding experience for all. It is a time for us all to come together as a community and make memories that will last a lifetime.

I couldn't be more pleased with the way things turned out this year. The Truman High School gym looked absolutely beautiful, we won our Homecoming game 54-0 over crosstown Kennedy and the dance went off without a hitch.

A huge thank you to Mrs. Hamilton and Mr. Solak for organizing such a wonderful event.  Thank you to the class advisors who spend countless hours working with their classes to make Homecoming special. Thank you to the staff who showed up to support the students at the parade, dance or just the game. It meant a lot and did not go unnoticed.

Thank you to the maintenance staff you worked relentlessly to make sure our field and school looked in tip-top shape and put in extra hours to clean up after the game and dance.   We truly are an educational community and I couldn't be prouder to be a Cougar!

Congratulations to Tyler Nunnery and Kristen Bailey, our 2013 Homecoming king and queen.

Let’s have another great week.

This is your school, this is my school and this is our school. We are making a difference!
