Homecoming 2026

We are excited to announce this year’s Homecoming theme: Around the World! 🌎✈️

Please join us on Monday, September 21, from 6:30–8:00 pm for our annual Homecoming Parade and Community Pep Rally!

As you plan your floats, we encourage everyone to incorporate blue and gold into their designs!

Parents, families, and friends are invited to campus as spectators to cheer on our Homecoming Court, parade floats, athletes, band, and special guests as they parade around campus!

For the safety of our students and guests, we kindly ask that spectators remain in the designated viewing zones and not enter the parade route.

After the parade, gather in Gibbs Stadium for a pep rally, food, games, and family fun.

We can’t wait to celebrate Homecoming and take a trip Around the World with you!

Homecoming Parade and Community Pep Rally

Parade Theme: Blue and Gold Eagle School Spirit

Join us on Monday, September 21, at 6:30 pm as we celebrate Homecoming with a parade and community pep rally! The parade will take place on the RCS campus. Come cheer on our Homecoming Court, athletes, band, student organizations, and parade participants, then stick around for a fun-filled community pep rally with our Eagle family at Gibbs Field. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Parade Participants: Those participating in the parade, or with students participating, will receive instructions from their group leader regarding parking and meeting points. Participant parking is on a first-come, first-served basis and will close at 5:45 pm

Spectators will need to utilize Rejoice Church for parking and access to the overflow lot. Parade viewing is on both sides of the viewing areas

Volunteers with Convertibles Needed

If you or someone you know happens to be the proud owner of a convertible, we could really use your help at our Homecoming parade. Drivers will be lining up for the parade on Monday, September 21 at 5:15 pm and the parade will be over no later than 8:00 pm. We would prefer to keep cars (along with their owner/drivers) limited to members of our Rejoice family/extended family, but we are wide open to suggestions. Thank you for helping us to make this the very best homecoming ever!

Contact Kaden Keller at kkeller@rejoiceschool.com or Courtney Hollingsworth at chollingsworth@rejoiceschool.com to volunteer.
