Homecoming 2013

The Tioga High School football team played an exciting game on October 4. The boys won the game 42-20. The halftime show was a success by both the band and cheerleaders. The Tioga Marching band, made up of 7th - 10th graders, led us in our school song, our fight song, and "Jaws," and, for the first time in Tioga history, they marched onto the field to perform. The High School cheerleaders did a great job with their cheer, dance, and stunt.

All week long our school was overflowing with spirit. Monday came and went, but not without loads of characters! Tuesday we were just giddy with our western wear. Wednesday much camo was seen and everybody was "happy, happy, happy." Thursday was filled with more nerds than you could count; the school spirit was abundant. Friday, many students sported their green and white to show their support. The hallways jingled and rang with spirit and mums.

 

 

 

 
The day then brought us the presentation of our homecoming court. The 9th grade representatives were Audrey Staples and Dillon Bryant. The 10th grade court members were Samantha Holcomb, Alia Quintero, Wills Bollin, and Cade Gibson. The 2013 Homecoming Prince and Princess were Micah Villa and Verenise Aguirre. Congratulations to everyone!

On dress-up days, students are required to wear “school appropriate” clothing. If the student’s attire is considered inappropriate, the student will be asked to change. Students may not wear clothing that is considered revealing. No weapons, masks, face paint, or fake blood. Administration has final authority on what is considered inappropriate.

Relay for Life

The Tioga Student Council, Cheerleaders, Journalism Class, and 8th grade class participated in the Relay for Life in honor of a student at our school with cancer. It was a fun event where we walked and raised money to donate to the American Cancer Society to help them find a cure for cancer. Our team was able to donate $3085.00. To see a slide show of pictures from the event go to the Relay for Life link on the Tioga ISD website.

He Really Kissed the Pig!

We had a student vs faculty basketball game to raise money for Relay for Life. The teachers "stomped" the students! Well, they thought they did anyway.....

At the game, our superintendent, Mr. Baker had to kiss a pig. He "won" the Kiss the Pig contest. It was awesome!

Through these fundraisers we were able to raise $500 to donate to the American Cancer Society in honor of an 8th grader at our school who has cancer.
