Homecoming Court Research Paper

Decent Essays
I think that all the goals were met for homecoming court, but there is always something we could do better or change. I think next year we should start planning and ordering things ahead of time, so if something doesn’t come in right we have time to fix it. Next year I think we could be there maybe twenty minutes before we walk down the field instead of an hour, because we wasted a lot of time instead of time girls could’ve been getting ready more. This year’s homecoming court has the been the best and smoothest than it has been in the last 4 years.

    In no way should there ever be a Confederate History Month celebrated in the United States of America. First of all, Steve Tuttle clearly said loud and clear that the Confederacy lost the war. Why celebrate when your side didn’t even win. There’s no point in even saying that it would celebrate the hard work and sacrifice that the “poor” confederate soldiers made. They wouldn’t have died if they didn’t fight to keep such cruel “practices” in the United States.…

What solutions are there to these situations, or can there be any resolution…
