A Disney-themed set of days under the slogan “Make Your Dreams Come True” will be arriving in Menno next week when the school and community celebrates homecoming. Things will get off to their formal start Monday evening, Sept. 11 with coronation inside the city/school auditorium beginning at 7:30 p.m. (The monthly school board meeting will take place prior to coronation starting at 6 p.m.)

The senior theme for coronation is “The Wolves will Bust Down the Door in 2024.”

Standing for homecoming king will be Seth Ahalt, Isaac Fergen and Aiden Heckenlaible, while the candidates for queen are Kaelie Derby, Ashton Massey and Maggie Miller.
