How did EBHS Students Prepare for Homecoming?

OCTOBER 29, 2026

It’s the month of October at East Brunswick High School! That means the pink out game, tricks and treats, the pep rally, and most importantly, homecoming! In the ballad of American High School, homecoming is the embodiment of glamor, socialization, and school spirit. To prepare for this occasion and make memories, students spend an enormous amount of time ensuring the most enjoyable experience during and after the event. Here’s what some students have to say about how they are preparing for this event: 

Olivia Cantara, junior at East Brunswick High School and nominee for the homecoming court, said: “For me, this time of year is really busy, so to ensure I have the best time at homecoming, I want to complete all of my schoolwork for the week so I can fully relax afterwards.”

Isabella Kwong, junior at East Brunswick High School, added on and said: “I think the biggest thing for me right now is staying in good health and making sure I don’t get sick before or afterwards.”

Chenuthi Rajapaksha, junior at East Brunswick High School, said: “This year homecoming should be really fun. Although I’m not doing anything in particular to prepare, I do want to make plans to hang out with my friends after the dance!” 

Overall, homecoming is a great way for students to make lasting memories by spending time with their friends and taking pride in their school. Though the ways in which students choose to prepare may differ, they all tie back to the core motive of making this high school dance something to fondly look back on.
