The parade kicked off at Gardiners Avenue Elementary School as local organizations joined with the school community. The youth football team, youth cheerleaders, school clubs and athletic teams paraded down the street to the high school led by central office administrators, Board of Education members and the marching band.

Back at the football field, the district individually recognized all the senior members, along with their parent or guest, of the football and cheerleading teams, marching band and kickline. The homecoming court was announced and each nominee was introduced. Jack Butler and Kylie Zanelli were crowded homecoming king and queen.

The MacArthur varsity football squad took to the field to square up against the Herricks Highlanders. The Generals scored the first touchdown in the first quarter and went on to score two more touchdowns before the halftime show. Halftime included performances from the cheerleaders from the varsity, junior varsity and middle school team, as well as kickline. The marching band treated the crowd to an excerpt from its new 2021 routine.

The Generals continued to dominate the game with one more touchdown in the third quarter. Herricks was able to get some points on the board in the last quarter but MacArthur took the win with a final score of 28-7.
