Shorewood High School celebrated Homecoming last week with a jam-packed week of class competitions, a royal court, a spirited assembly, a nail-biter of a football game, halftime performances and a dance.

Homecoming is a celebration of school pride and class unity that is rich in history and tradition. This year's theme, Pacific North Best, brought out the originality and creativity in students, with each class selecting a different company with its roots here in the Pacific Northwest.

Freshmen sampled as Costco, the sophomores served as Starbucks, juniors took off with Boeing, and seniors delivered as Amazon.

At the end of the week, which included seven different competitions, the winner of the 2018 Homecoming festivities was announced at the all-school assembly --the Senior class!!

A highlight of the week was the announcement of our Homecoming Court. They were nominated by the senior class and voted on by the entire school. These students are all involved in several school activities, and together, this group has accumulated almost 1500 hours of community service!

The Thunderbirds, however, clinched their first postseason appearance in many years. They play Arlington this Friday, 10/26 at 5pm at Shoreline Stadium. The results of the game will determine seeding in the state football playoffs starting Friday, November 2nd.
