Please sign this petition if you would like to see the MCHS Homecoming parade happen at a different time than 6pm on Friday and be more of a parade not a march. This is a long time tradition that is a great time for the students and the community. Fun parade with floats, candy throwing, homecoming court riding in cars, teams riding in trucks and on trailers, band marching, cheer and dance doing their thing....all while the community watches from the sides of the street!!

You need to rethink the parade. I really think the excuse of testing is a copout. Move the parade to Thursday or later on Friday. Stop taking fun activities away from the kids. You are supposed to be all for the kids in your profession, and I am not seeing that from the administration of this district.
The homecoming parade was something that not only the high school students used to look forward to, but the community as well. Windows along the stores were painted. Alumni, present, and future students were all lined up to watch it. So many things are changing but the school spirit shouldn't. Keep the parade going! Super Fan Larry would be so upset..
Why would they take it away? It was always such a highlight to homecoming marching on the streets around McCracken and seeing the community get together for it. I loved that the elementary school students lined up to watch as well.
The students need this parade. It is a memory they will remember forever. I remember all of mine and it's one of my greatest memories from high school.
Homecoming without a parade? Paint the windows on Green Street and no parade? Keep the parade, it's a fun tradition for everyone, classmates, alumni, local people of all kind!
BRING IT BACK
There's no good reason we need to cancel a tradition like this

Such a great tradition! My boys loved walking and riding the floats in the parade! We spent hours throughout the years helping to build the floats and driving our truck in the parade. What is wrong with this district!!!
