Street Painting on Trojan Boulevard brings clubs, teams and organizations together.
Making memories is one of the highlights of high school years; every year Homecoming Week does just that. Kicking it all off on Monday, Sept. 9, with the parade that involves numerous clubs, teams and organization from around Morgan Valley.
Tuesday, Trojan Blvd. was closed off to traffic as school clubs, teams and organizations turned out for street painting with each group showing what they are all about. Not only did streets get painted but students also splashed plenty of paint on each other. The office ladies fired up the grill to feed the students hotdogs. Later that night more color filled the air during the annual Color Run sponsored by the MHS cross country and track teams. With over 170 participants and 50 volunteers, this year’s Color Run was deemed a success.
Wednesday, the fan favorite Powder Puff game which pits the junior girls against the senior girls is a game of flag football with the seniors beating the juniors by 16 points.
Thursday, the student body gathered as the sun went down to watch “High School Musical,” which was also the theme of the week.
Friday, the traditional Homecoming game brought Kearns High School to Morgan where the MHS Trojan football team dominated 65 to 0.
The 2024 Homecoming week came to an end Saturday night with a dance at the high school and a fireworks show.
