Frenship High School Homecoming Celebrations
This past Friday, Frenship High School celebrated Homecoming with a day filled with Tiger pride and tradition. The festivities included the Frenship Alumni and Friends tailgate, where alumni gathered to reconnect and celebrate, the Fallen Tiger Memorial Scholarship presentation, and the crowning of the 2026 FHS Homecoming King, Karson Eleuterius, and Queen, Lula Biondi.
During the celebration, Frenship Alumni and Friends presented $4,500 in Fallen Tiger Memorial Scholarships to nine graduates, honoring Tigers we have lost throughout the years. Each recipient received a $500 scholarship. It was a memorable day celebrating Frenship’s traditions, community, and the Tiger spirit that brings us all together.
