Club leader senior Rylee Marshall recounted what it was like to get things started.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c[We] held club meetings, made announcements about it, had meetings before and after school, making sure to have room for everyone who wants to get involved,\u201d Marshall said. \u201cThis year it\u2019s been super successful.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike other states\u2019 closets, the club made changes such as gender neutral formal options and having an array of accessories to pair with the outfits. On open house days, students are welcomed into the school to see the downstairs closet with dresses, suits, accessories and shoes, along with fitting rooms and a help desk. They are able to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tour the closet to find the outfit they need.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe goal is to be inclusive,\u201d adviser Amy Rankin said. \u201cJust because you\u2019re a girl doesn\u2019t mean you want to wear a dress, and just because you\u2019re a boy doesn\u2019t mean you want to wear a dress.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The club has made strides to advertise to other schools, and hopes to reach out to different companies for partnerships or donations. There are open houses scheduled on Sept. 18 from 6-9 pm, Sept. 21 from 12-3 pm, and Sept. 24 from 6-8 pm.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17378","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-1-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Becca\u2019s Closet opens to students for the 2024 Homecoming Season at Midland High - UPDATE ONLINE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/update.midlandps.org\/index.php\/2024\/09\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Becca\u2019s Closet opens to students for the 2024 Homecoming Season at Midland High - UPDATE ONLINE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/update.midlandps.org\/index.php\/2024\/09\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"UPDATE ONLINE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DHSUpdate\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-09-19T11:20:03+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-09-19T11:20:35+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Cammie Hall\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@DowHighUpdate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@DowHighUpdate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Cammie Hall\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Cammie Hall\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/e58929e5a9ee890dd672c441ddd72a13\"},\"headline\":\"Becca\u2019s Closet opens to students for the 2024 Homecoming Season at Midland High\",\"datePublished\":\"2024-09-19T11:20:03+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-09-19T11:20:35+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":264,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#organization\"},\"articleSection\":[\"NEWS\"],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"CommentAction\",\"name\":\"Comment\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/#respond\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/\",\"name\":\"Becca\u2019s Closet opens to students for the 2024 Homecoming Season at Midland High - UPDATE ONLINE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-09-19T11:20:03+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-09-19T11:20:35+00:00\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/beccas-closet-opens-to-students-for-the-2024-homecoming-season-at-midland-high\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/\",\"name\":\"UPDATE ONLINE\",\"description\":\"H.H.
