The back field of Hicksville High School felt like a community gathering place on Oct. 17, as students of all ages, along with teachers, administrators, Board of Education members, parents and alumni, came out for the annual homecoming celebration. Festivities on the day started with the traditional homecoming fair, a districtwide event hosted by the PTA Council. All nine Hicksville schools participated, including PTAs from each building and SEPTA, with tables with games, snacks and more. Fair-goers could get a hot dog and Hicksville swag, and children enjoyed attractions.

After the fair, it was time for the homecoming parade, which started at the back of the school and ended on the track in front of the bleachers. It featured the marching band, class banners, cheerleaders and the kick line team. The theme for this year’s banners was The Wonders of the World, and during halftime the Class of 2027 were announced at the winners for their “Taj Mahal” display.

The Hicksville Comets took on the Westbury Green Dragons in the homecoming game, with packed stands of fans in their orange and black. Halftime featured the marching band’s dynamic show, “The Spirit of Water,” followed by performances from the cheerleaders and kick line team. Christopher Johnson and Adyson Peralta were announced as this year’s homecoming king and queen.
