| CATHERINE: Hey Blazers! Don’t forget to vote for homecoming court. In order to promote inclusivity, Blair has decided to allow students to choose their royal title once they are crowned to respect gender and pronoun preferences. Original grade- based names are only available to the grade, so King and Queen are only available to seniors. The royal titles will be selected upon the candidate’s victory. In addition, each voter will vote for two candidates regardless of gender and the top two winners will be crowned. Applications are due on October 5th, and can be found outside of room 161. |
