Homecoming Week 2025

Saturday, November 8 - Friday, November 14
 

Funding the Future
In addition to all of the fun activities during homecoming week - which include dress up days, the homecoming game and the semi-formal dance - each grade will be raising money for their grade level's Funding the Future (FtF) initiative. All money donated will go toward tuition assistance for an incoming student the year after the collecting class graduates. For example, the class of 2026 will raise money for a student in the incoming class of 2030.

Students, family and friends can make direct donations via each class’s online form:

Proceeds from all other sales during homecoming week also go directly towards each FtF initiative, including homecoming t-shirts, raffle ticket sales, class lunch fundraising, and homecoming dance ticket sales. Track your class's fundraising progress on the Funding the Future Totals spreadsheet.

Homecoming Dance: Saturday, November 8 from 7-10 p.m.
The semi-formal homecoming dance kicks off hoco week this year. All ND students and their high school-aged guests are invited to attend, and this year's dance will be held in Pardini Park and JB Hall (weather permitting). Please see the Homecoming Dance page for more information and to buy your tickets before sales close on Friday, November 7 at 3 p.m. or when they sell out, whichever is sooner.

Homecoming T-Shirts
Homecoming shirts can be worn on Friday, November 14 at school and during the game, and can also be worn on any Regent FIRST Friday during the school year. Approximately $10 from each shirt sale goes directly to each class's FtF. Order your shirt by Friday, October 24 at 3 p.m. to ensure that the shirts can be printed and distributed before the homecoming game. No extras will be ordered, and students who ordered shirts will be emailed with pick up instructions once they arrive on campus.

Homecoming Game Raffle Tickets
Our generous teachers, faculty and staff have donated over 30 great raffle prizes, including $100 cash, a variety of gift cards, Academic or Nirvana Soul delivered to the winner during their free block, and a dessert bar for you and your friends! The prize drawings will take place during the homecoming game but students do not need to be present to win. Students can purchase raffle tickets in-person during the week of homecoming from ASB members in Pardini Park or during the game, and can also use the raffle ticket online form to purchase tickets. 100% of these proceeds go directly to the class's FtF.
