WSHS's Homecoming Football Game is set for this Friday, Sept 28 at 7pm at the Southwest Athletic Complex against Rainier Beach.

All students, families and alumni are invited to join the fun starting at 6pm with the WSHS Cheerleaders hosting a Spirit BBQ. They will sell hamburgers, hotdogs, chips and drinks. The concessions stand, hosted by the Cross Country Team will be open during the game and will sell lots of goodies to appease your sweet tooth as well!

At halftime, the fun really starts! Our amazing new Music Director Ethan Thomas will debut his Marching Band. The Cheerleaders will perform a Homecoming routine under the direction of Coach Christina Ruzzine-Posten and we will call out and recognize all the alumni in attendance.

As per tradition, cheerleader alumni are welcome to join the current cheerleaders on the track to help cheer for our beloved Wildcats.

Please come support WSHS and show your school spirit and pride by wearing WHITE to the game. The theme of this years Homecoming is "Yup, in my white tee" and we are hosting a "white out" at the game.

At halftime they will also announce the WSHS Homecoming Royalty and the go to www.king5.com/sports to vote for the game of the week.

Homecoming continues on Saturday Sept. 29.

Theme: Yup. In My white Tee
Date: September 29th
Location: West Seattle high School commons
Time: 8:30-11:30

We are still looking for parent chaperones to attend the dance on the 29th from 8:00-11:30 pm. We are looking for help with coat checks, selling snacks, and being a positive presence in the building. We are hoping that the parents of our students will help us in our effort to shape the culture of school dances so it is a clean, safe, and positive experience for all students.

Please Email Christina Ruzzine at caruzzine@seattleschools.org if you are interested in helping chaperone our Homecoming dance!
