14 girls pursuing three thrones all for one night. This group of senior girls share the same aspiration; the title of Homecoming Queen.
“Homecoming is one of the most important events of the school year and I feel like I can be a great role model for the school,” said homecoming queen hopeful Maralei Rhoads.
Not all 14 girls will get to wear the crown of queen, but two will have the honor of representing their school as Ms. Football and Ms. Sport.
Girls are strapping on their heels as they try to outrun the 13 other contestants.
“You could say I’m more competitive, but, the more competition the better,” said homecoming queen hopeful Cristal Ah Nee.
Although there are 14 girls competing for the crown, there are only three boys in the running for homecoming king. The king side may not be as competitive, but the same amount of prep work has to be done to be in the running. Hopefuls for king and queen are required to get signatures from peers, teacher recommendations, clear all financial obligations and attend all meetings.
The homecoming court at Waianae High school is made up of the three positions. Each candidate must decide which title they want to run for that evening. No one position is considerably greater than the other, but the title of queen is the most popular.
“I’m running for queen. If you’re going to do something, you might as well go for the best one,” said homecoming hopeful Alexandrica Pelen.
With signs covering the campus and voting rooms crowded on the 15th and 16th, Waianae High School can only wait to see which girls take the throne on homecoming night.
