It was a hectic Tuesday at Renton High School as classes plastered the student commons walls with banners, cartoons and cutouts to celebrate spirit week.
This year the school will graduate its 100th class, and students and alumni have taken the celebration to heart as they plan the Homecoming events.
“We all take a lot of pride in being the centennial class,” said senior class president Vanessa Tran, after flattening out a centennial banner written in colorful graffiti art.
Friday at 5:30 p.m. the students will parade from Renton High School to the Renton Memorial Stadium, where they can attend a tailgate barbecue and football game at 7 p.m.
The competition is Renton’s long-time rival, Highline.
The events are public; a $5 donation is suggested for non-students who attend the barbecue.
