Homecoming Tips and Information
Homecoming Tips
DATE OR GROUP?Students DO NOT have to have a date to go to the dance
Even students who have a date can go with a group
Most groups are mixed with some students who have dates and some who do not
Parents of those in the group can meet to determine dinner plans, transportation and after party plans
Be sure to share phone numbers
Most parents feel more comfortable when they meet their child’s friends’ parents
Homecoming Tips

Host a catered dinner for your child’s group
Have everyone contribute money
Have everyone bring a dish for the dinner
Make reservations at a restaurant for your child’s friends
Make them early—there are lots of groups out there!

Simple Rules for Dating My Son/Daughter
A simple rule for dating my son: I know how today’s ‘fashionable’ young woman likes to dress. When
my son brings you home to meet us, if there are parts of your clothes that allow parts of your anatomy to show, we will take care of it before you leave. I have an extensive supply of duct tape and super glue. You see, I can’t take the chance of an accident happening when my son’s eyes pop out - he will need them both for medical school.
A simple rule for dating my daughter: If you pull into my driveway and honk, you’d better be delivering a
package, because you’re sure as heck not picking anything up!
