LCHS homecoming assembly pep rally

[October 05, 2026]    

Lincoln Community High School celebrated Homecoming week with the traditional Homecoming assembly on October 2 to introduce students participating in fall extra-curricular activities and crown the Homecoming King and Queen. After a shortened class schedule, the LCHS band drumline marched through the school hallways leading students to the gymnasium for the assembly. The band continued to play while students and teachers took their seats on the bleachers and then led the crowd in “Lincoln, Lincoln,” the school fight song. Chris Hammer welcomed the student body and thanked the band, as well as the LCHS staff who had volunteered to make all of the special Homecoming week activities a success. He then handed the microphone over to student government emcees who again welcomed everyone and then led the student body in a cheer with a competition between classes for who could yell their part the loudest.

The student emcees next began the introductions of the fall extra-curricular coaches, directors, and student participants. Coaches and sponsors introduced their teams and clubs to the crowd beginning with Girls Golf and continuing with Boys Golf, FFA, Boys Soccer, Fall Play (performances were announced for this coming Columbus Day weekend), Girls Tennis, Cross Country, Volleyball, and Football. The Pom Squad was then introduced and performed a dance routine, followed by introductions of the football Cheerleaders, who also performed cheers and dance.

Then the senior members of the football team joined the cheerleaders for a fun choreographed routine of dance, kicklines, and lifts. Homecoming Grand Marshall, Leslie Bischoff, LCHS 2014 Teacher of the Year, was introduced and recognized for her career and commitment to LCHS. Finally, the Homecoming court was presented and the Homecoming King and Queen were announced for the first time. The band closed the assembly with “Lincoln, Lincoln,” while students exited the gym to prepare for the Homecoming parade at 2:30 p.m.
