(COVINGTON, La.) — St. Paul’s School celebrates Homecoming this week, which began Monday with the special privilege of “dress down days” — including America Day, Beach Day, Twin Day, Jersey Day, and Gold Out Day — and will continue with a pep rally later today, football game and alumni reception tonight, and Homecoming dance Saturday night.

At tonight’s Homecoming game, the Homecoming court will be presented, presided over by the Queen, Kerilynn Walsh, who was nominated by senior Sam Dufour.

“Kerilynn really has no enemies, and she makes sure everyone is doing well,” Dufour said of why Walsh received the most votes. “She is an all-around person, and she’s fun to be around.”

This afternoon at 2:30 p.m., the administration, faculty, and student body will attend a pep rally, which will include the presentation of the court. The court will also be presented at halftime of the Friday night game in Hunter Stadium against Northshore which kicks off at 7 p.m., with the traditional crowning of the queen to follow. Alumni and friends of the school are invited to attend a reception after the game in the school cafeteria.
