Palo Alto High School’s annual homecoming dance will take place at 7 p.m. Saturday in the small gym, free of charge for all students.

Guests are encouraged to wear white clothing to fit the theme of “whiteout” for the semiformal dance event.

“Attending homecoming is a great way for you to earn Spirit Week points for your class,” Associated Student Body President Uma Veerappan said. “There was great attendance at the Back-to-School dance, and we really hope that stays the same for the rest of the year.”

Guest forms for students from other schools are due Oct. 26.

“I’m looking forward to the dance because it’s a great way to end Spirit Week,” Veerappan said. “I also know that many students who normally do not attend dances have plans to come to homecoming, which is really awesome.”
