Welcome home, Rockets! McNicholas celebrates Homecoming
McNicholas is excited to celebrate Homecoming this weekend! We will kick off the celebration with a Homecoming Field Day & Pep Rally on Friday, Oct. 8.
Weather permitting, the pep rally will be held at Penn Station Stadium beginning at 9:45 a.m. Parents are welcome to join us; students will be dismissed at 11:15 a.m.
Sadly, due to a COVID cancellation, we are unable to play the Friday evening Homecoming football game. As such, there will be no on-campus activity on Friday evening.
All McNicholas students are invited to the Homecoming dance on Saturday, Oct. 9 from 8-11 p.m. at the Tri-State Warbird Museum Event Hangar located at 4021 Borman Drive, Batavia, Ohio 45103. The Homecoming King and Queen will be crowned at the dance.
Tickets are $15 each and include parking; ride sharing is encouraged. Tickets for the dance are available for purchase during lunch October 4-7 or online here. Ticket sales end at 5 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 7; they will not be sold at the door.
Students are reminded that appropriate dress and behavior, as outlined in the Expectations for Homecoming Dance sent via email, are required. Masks are also required. Concessions will be available for purchase; cash only.
Congratulations to the members of the Homecoming Court.

Some of life's greatest lessons cannot be found in a textbook. They are discovered standing beneath the ancient arches of the Colosseum, gazing up at masterpieces in Vatican City, or watching the sun set along the Seine River. This spring, 43 McNicholas students experienced those moments firsthand, returning home with a deeper appreciation for art, history, culture, and the world around them.

Nine McNicholas students traveled to Buenos Aires this summer for the school's first Sister School Exchange with Instituto Nuestra Señora de Las Nieves, building on friendships formed when Argentine students visited McNicholas earlier this year. Through living with host families, attending classes, and experiencing Argentina's rich culture and history, students discovered that the most meaningful lessons come from stepping beyond their comfort zones and embracing connections that transcend borders.
