From MLive in re the homecoming "event" at Northwest School district (Jackson, MI area) this week. No floats, no candy, and apparently no fun either.
"Northwest High School students will not ride on floats in the homecoming parade or throw candy to the crowd.
But
they will create lip dubs — videos of people lip-synching to songs —
before homecoming and play capture the flag and have a water balloon war
homecoming week.
Teacher Marnie Hade, the student government
adviser, told the Northwest School Board on Wednesday that parade
participants may hand out healthy snacks and items such as mini
footballs in the grass along the parade route.
But Hade said participants may not throw candy because it violates the school’s wellness policy.
'There will not be any candy of any kind,' Hade said." [emphasis added]
Sounds like big fun, eh?
