The Homecoming Assembly will be held Friday, Sept. 26 at 1 p.m. in the Rogers Heritage High School gymnasium. The Homecoming parade will begin at 4: 15 p.m. at Gates Stadium, and the Homecoming ceremony will take place at 6: 45 p.m. on the field at Gates Stadium.
The Homecoming dance, hosted by the RHHS Student Council, will be from 9: 30 p.m. until midnight in the RHHS Commons.
All alumni of RHS who graduated from the Heritage High School site are especially invited to attend the Homecoming assembly and game to see and experience the exciting changes taking place at their Alma Mater. As the new high school was named "Heritage"to acknowledge and honor those who graduated from this same foundation, RHHS's first homecoming is being celebrated as a tribute to all the students who attended school at the location. RHHS invites all of its alumni to "come home"and celebrate at their high school.
