Homecoming week nears at Burton!

The most entertaining and enjoyable week of the school year is slowly approaching. That's right - homecoming week is almost here. Everyone enjoys dressing up and acting wacky with all the other students during this fun-filled week. All students should participate in this exciting week and show their school spirit. Homecoming week will begin on Monday, October, 27th  and will last through Friday, October, 31st.

Homecoming days are as follows: Monday- 'Merica' Monday: Show your love for America by expressing your patriotic spirit; Tuesday- Pink Out Day: Go all out in PINK clothing for Breast Cancer Awareness Month; Wednesday- Decade Day: Dress like your favorite decade, from poodle skirts to hippie attire and everything in between; Thursday- Halloween day: dress in your favorite costumes. (NO MASKS, TRENCHCOATS, OR WEAPONS ALLOWED); and Friday- Spirit day: Go all out for your Raiders by dressing in orange, black, and white. The crazier the attire, the better.

In addition to the aforementioned dress up days, there will be a dance on Halloween night: Friday, October, 31st.  It will last from 7:00 pm-9:30 pm and will be a costume dance. The dance will be held at Quality Inn in Norton, beside Hardee's. Tickets to attend will be $5.00, and all students will receive a wristband. This wristband will let adults and teachers know that the person is a student. Everyone should dress up and come and enjoy the games and good food. Awards will be given to the most creative costumes, best couple costumes, and best group costumes!
