Out of an abundance of caution due to forecasted high temperatures, we are adjusting the start time for the Ladue Horton Watkins High School 2nd Annual Homecoming Parade ("Due'Chella") on Wednesday, September 16, 2026. The safety and well-being of our students, staff, and community remain our top priority.

Please note the updated schedule for Wednesday evening (times are pushed back 30 minutes):

Updated Event Schedule

• 5:00 p.m. – Ladue Middle School (LMS) lot opens for parade participants and teams

• 6:00 p.m. – Parade departs LMS (9703 Conway Road) and travels down Conway Road

• 7:15 p.m. – Blue & White Night and Powder Puff game begin at the football stadium, followed immediately by the Bonfire

With the warmer weather, we strongly encourage all parade participants, teams, and spectators to bring water and drink plenty of fluids throughout the evening.
