North Springs Celebrates Homecoming with Week of Festivities

North Springs Charter High School this week will celebrate its 2014 Homecoming with a slew of events.

This week’s festivities will lead up to the Spartans’ Homecoming game, tailgate and alumni BBQ on Friday, Oct. 24 and the Spartan Parade on Saturday, Oct. 25; all alumni and community friends are invited to attend.

Friday night’s festivities begin at 5 p.m. with Future Business Leaders of America’s tailgate complete with food trucks, games, dunk tank and the sale of 2014 Viva Las North Springs black out t-shirts —a nod to this year’s Las Vegas theme.

Alumni are invited to the Alumni BBQ, which starts at 6 p.m. on the athletic field.

The Spartans, back at home after their big upset against neighborhood rival Riverwood International Charter School, will take the field for the football game against Forsyth Central at 7:30 p.m. Presentations of the court and crowning of the homecoming king and queen will occur during halftime.

The Spartan Parade, led by the Marching Spartan Band will step off at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 25 from Woodland Elementary and proceed down Spalding Drive to North Springs Charter. The road will be blocked to traffic, thanks to the city of Sandy Springs and its police department.

All week Spartans will be celebrating with special costume spirit days planned and coordinated by the Student Government Association. On Tuesday, Oct. 21, the school’s chorus will present their fall concert at 7 p.m. and on Thursday, Oct. 23, the first Sprangs Got Talent show will begin at 6 p.m.

For more information about any of these events or to participate please contact Public Relations Liaison Carol Ciepluch at pr@northspringshigh.com.
