Welcome, fellow students, to the 2025-2026 school year! As we get settled into our classes and find our rhythms, there are many exciting upcoming events to look forward to this fall. Some of the events include our football games, the Jackrabbit Pageant, and Homecoming week. A few of the most notable football games are when we play Mission Viejo High School on October 3rd, at Mission Viejo. Millikan High School on October 10th at Veterans Memorial Stadium, and on October 17th, we play against Wilson High School also at Veterans Stadium.
“This season, I’m most excited to build a relationship with all my teammates and going to state, and winning state!” said senior varsity football player Jaden Hernandez. His enthusiasm and love
for the game are evident, and he encourages people to support the team at their games! It’s a great time of watching great football, spending time with friends, and meeting new people.
Another exciting event is our 31st annual Jackrabbit Pageant. The Jackrabbit Pageant is a great way to put your talents on display and a way for others to learn about your journey as a Jackrabbit. There is a wide range of skills being showcased, and by the end of the night, two people are crowned Mr. and Mrs. Jackrabbit. It is a great honor and lots of fun. “I think people should go to the Jackrabbit Pageant because it shows the wide range of interests that our student
body has,” shared junior ASB member Rhieley Sumandal.
Finally, our Homecoming fair is also around the corner. This year’s HoCo theme is HoCoachella. HoCo week is October 13th-17th, and there will be special themes each day of the week to dress up. Spirit Week has many students buzzing with anticipation. “We are most
excited about the dress-up days. The themes are so cute and fun. I love when everyone dresses up!” said Zimra Zaid and Kadence Bain.
There are many more upcoming events, and these are just a few of the favorites being highlighted. Students and staff can look forward to a fun and exciting fall full of activities!
