Homecoming week festivities at S-T ISD are well underway as Friday's first District football game vs. Taft approaches. One of the highlights of homecoming week is the "Lighting of the S-T" at Bobcat Stadium. The event is made possible each year by Mr. Garcia's agricultural science students who are responsible for construction of the giant S-T.

Festivities continue right up to game time with recognition of "The Greats of the Eights" in which alumni from each graduating class ending in "8" receive free admission to Friday's game (plus one guest).

Special recognition will be given to the Skidmore-Tynan ISD's very first graduating class of 1948-09, members of which included: J.C. Beyer, Judy Beyer, Alvin Boldt, Melba Bremer, Annie Mae Doubrava, James Duge, Lucille Finke, Joyce Gregorczyk, Leona Lamprecht, Maurine Mattingly, G.A. Neill, Bill Ross, and Don Rylant.


The cheerleaders were out earlier this week decorating area businesses.
