October 7, 2022 Homecoming Events:
After consultation with the Vermilion Parish Central Office, Homecoming events will go on the day of homecoming (Friday, October 7, 2022). There will be some slight changes due to SAFETY protocol. We will still have the parade, a Pep rally for high school students and the community, and variations of visitation at each school.
As stated earlier, all three Erath (Erath High, Erath Middle, Dozier Elementary) schools will resume visitation for Homecoming. Visitors will be required to present a ticket with their name or get in a line to sign in. No Bags or purses of any kind will be allowed. Students will be sent home Tuesday with a sheet requesting the number of tickets needed. Alumni (visitors) can begin picking up tickets at EHS from Tuesday, September 13th through Friday, September 23rd. For questions, contact the office.(PLEASE NOTE: If visiting Erath High, Erath Middle and/or Dozier Elementary, tickets will be needed from each school.)
No students in grades 8th and under can attend Erath High school games unless they are accompanied by an adult. Students 8th grade and under can not attend with a high school student. All students must be seated in the stands at all times unless going to the restroom or to get concessions. At no time should students be gathered around talking or playing.
There will be a high school student section for Erath High school students only. Students, you MUST BRING YOUR ID to enter.
