Homecoming is a time for Fun and Excitement at Woodside High School. A sense of belonging is created when students come together and show off their school spirit. The overall theme for Homecoming is THE HAPPIEST SCHOOL ON EARTH. Each grade has a sub-theme that is connected to Disneyland in one way or another. 

Every day all grades are encouraged to dress according to their predetermined spirit theme. Everyone, including staff, is encouraged to get involved and have fun. An example of dressing up could be on Jersey Day wearing a jersey from the Giants or coming in a football jersey. 

Students who may need some dress-up items are encouraged to stop by D7 the week prior to homecoming The leadership class will have a few items available for purchase. 

At lunch, there will be various activities happening in the quad. Students are encouraged to come out to the quad and participate.
