Have you ever wished you could visit Paris? Well, next week you can take a trip to the City of Light — and you don’t even have to get on a plane and travel thousands  of miles away. Stepping into the main gym for the Homecoming dance will be like stepping through a portal that leads to Paris because this year’s Homecoming theme is “A Night In Paris.” The gym will be transformed by scores of mini- Eiffel towers, gorgeous Art Deco street lamps that are only found in Paris and a beautiful night sky filled with twinkling lights
