Although it may not be as widespread as Promposals, homecoming proposals are still a custom in high school and college.
There are many different ways to ask someone to homecoming, whether it involves flowers and chocolate or a sign. Since we live in the generation of technology students have taken advantage of this.
Sophomore Kaleb Gucinski recently asked his girlfriend to homecoming over the app FaceTime.
“I wrote on a piece of paper that I had handy ‘will you go to homecoming with me?’ Even though we already knew we were going, I still wanted to ask her since it is a tradition in high school.” Gucinski said.
Many students ask in person instead. For example, when junior Hannah Rodgers asked her girlfriend to homecoming.
“I spray painted a field with ‘Homecoming?’ held up a sign and gave her flowers. The only downside was that it was really dark outside, so the paint was barely visible. I thought about just casually asking her, but then I realized she meant a lot to me and deserved something way bigger,” Rodgers said.
One year later, Rodgers is still with her girlfriend. They will be attending homecoming again this week.
