Homecoming Week 2022

Homecoming Week is a celebration of the new school year leading up to the Homecoming Football Game! Every year, Student Council works hard to organize fun events during and after school to bring the Gael community together as we head together into the new school year.

The Club Expo will kick things off with Club Leaders manning tables for newcomers to visit and learn about all of the student groups Kennedy has to offer throughout the week. To view the full list of clubs offered this year, visit the Club Expo Gael Winds article.
