DANCING THE KNIGHT AWAY: After months of planning, the student council put on the school’s first homecoming dance since 2019. With nearly 500 people jam-packed into the venue, the dance sparked photo opps, dance battles and special moments between friends. 

For sophomore class student council President Ruhi Motwani, getting to be both a part of planning the dance, as well as attending it made all the hours of work worth it. 

“I loved being part of the planning process because I had a lot of freedom in my decision-making, so I was able to bring new things to the dance that I knew I would enjoy and thought the student body would enjoy,” Motwani said. 

Motwani was on the team that sold tickets to her class, and she worked the concession booth during the dance. 

“I was super nervous because I wanted everything to go well, and be put together,” Motwani said. “I’m really happy that all worked out in the end. It was really rewarding to see the hard work the student council has put into planning this event come to life.” 

Now that the homecoming dance has returned, Motwani hopes it will continue to grow in the future.

“We had such a good turnout, and the venue looked beautiful,” Motwani said. “It was 100% worth it. I had so much fun.”
