As the BISD All-Sports Booster Club celebrates “100 years of Buckaroo Football: 1022-2022,” this year’s Homecoming theme of “The Good Ol’ Days” will focus on celebrating Breckenridge High School alumni, as well as all the current students and staff at BISD.

The Homecoming Game will be on Sept. 23 against the Benbrook Bobcats, but Homecoming-related activities will start as early as Sept. 17 with a dance for alumni and current students. Activities continue throughout the week of Sept. 18 with a parade, pep rally and other athletic games.
