A Homecoming Celebration for Everyone

Homecoming is always a special tradition, but this year's celebration was a reminder of what makes Cleveland Public Schools so unique: our people.

One of the highlights of the week was a Homecoming Court that truly represented our school community. Students from a wide range of activities, backgrounds, interests, and grade levels were recognized and celebrated. From athletes to artists, leaders to quiet difference-makers, our court reflected the many paths that help make Cleveland High School a great place to learn, grow, and belong.

Homecoming week was packed with excitement. Students and families enjoyed football, cheer and band performances, tailgate festivities, inflatables, and an unforgettable pep rally that filled our school with energy and Tiger pride. Throughout the week, the focus remained on bringing people together and celebrating the many ways students contribute to our school community.

We were especially proud to recognize our 2026 Homecoming King and Queen, Dawson Kelcey and Hallie Collins. Their selection capped off a memorable week dedicated to school spirit, tradition, and community.

Most importantly, Homecoming reminded us that there is a place for everyone at Cleveland High School. Whether students take the field, perform on the sidelines, participate in clubs and organizations, excel in the classroom, or simply show up each day ready to make a difference, each person helps shape the story of our school.
