Heyworth Schools recently installed a new turf football field, but that is not the end of those facility upgrades. 

Superintendent Dr. Lisa Taylor indicates that the new scoreboard should be ready for their Homecoming football game against Alton Marquette Catholic. She says the turf project ended up costing less than they had predicted, giving them the opportunity to add the scoreboard. 

Dr. Taylor explains that while it is fun to celebrate and watch the students take pride in their school, she says it is one of the most exhausting weeks of the year for staff. Dr. Taylor adds that Thursday will host many of the Homecoming activities, including the parade, bonfire, and presentation of the Homecoming court. 

The Heyworth Hornets will take on Alton Marquette Catholic to celebrate Homecoming this year. Learn more about the week-long celebration by visiting husd4.org or finding Heyworth Schools on Facebook.
