Weston Ranch begins its Homecoming week today. Cougars across the campus will spend the week building up the spirit by participating in daily dress-up days, listening to music and playing games on the Quad, and preparing for the annual rally to be held Friday afternoon in the WR gymnasium. Spirit week will conclude Friday evening in the staduim with the Coronation of the Queen and Princess and the Cougars football game against Stagg High School.
Homecoming is always a special time for high schoolers as they show their spirit and the community what outstanding students we have here at Weston Ranch. In addition, graduates of WRHS get to come “home” to their old school to visit, share stories, and celebrate the beautiful qualities of this community. So many supporters show support and cheer on the Cougars on a terrific evening.
On Friday, Weston Ranch will crown its Royalty at halftime of the Cougars football game. Royalty candidates will spend the week in the spotlight wearing sashes, crowns, and big smiles. T
