She is looking forward to all of the festivities leading up to homecoming such as spirit week, Powderpuff, and being in the student section for the homecoming game.

Tina Dao - 
In school Dao is a part of the tutoring and writing center, as well as a crew member in theater. As she is involved in a lot through Susquehannock, she is hoping to do more volunteer work at an animal shelter or library outside of school. When she was nominated for homecoming court, she was very surprised as she did not ask people to vote for her. She did not think about it too much because she did not think she would make it on. “It means a lot to be recognized by my peers as someone they view as enjoyable or that they like,” said Dao “It feels very sweet because everyone is so lovely, so to be with a bunch of other kind girls means a lot to me.” By this experience, she hopes to “...have fun and get to know the rest of the court a bit better before we graduate and go our separate ways.” Photograph courtesy of Tina Dao.

Megan Stiffler - 
Inside of school Stiffler plays varsity field hockey, is student council president, and is a member of Mini-THON. Outside of school she plays club field hockey and works for tasteful occasions. She does not think she stands out from the rest of the girls,  as they were all heavily involved through the high school and are well regarded students. “I was honestly surprised, I was not expecting much and I know that there are so many amazing girls in our grade so I would’ve been happy for any of them if they made it onto homecoming court,” said Stiffler. “ Being on homecoming court is an honor because it shows that you are well respected by your peers.” She is looking forward to having an actual homecoming dance this year since she is a part of the committee that plans and designs the homecoming dance, such as the theme and layout.

In school she is involved with the soccer team, Mini- THON, Link Crew, Writing Center and the Tutoring Center. She is excited to have fun one last time with the entire school, as it is an event where everyone comes together as a whole. As she experiences this tradition from a new perspective, she is excited to be a part of the court and look back on it in the future. “ I think it's a memorable experience that I have to always look back on and I think that's really valuable. It also gives me the opportunity to talk to different people and do things I normally don't get to, which is something to remember as well,” said Flaherty. Photograph courtesy of Allison Flaherty.

Amy Collins - 
Collins believes that being nominated for homecoming court represents the sense of community within the school as she was very honored to be a part of the Susquehannock tradition. When she found out she made homecoming court,  she was shocked and did not expect it. When looking at the other contestants, she feels as if they are all different in their own way. “I personally do not think there’s one specific thing that makes me stand out from the other contestants,” said Collins“We are all different with our own personalities and hobbies, and I think that it is cool in itself.” She is looking forward to being able to have a dance this year and continue with the normalcy of high school.
