Alexandria City High School is set to commemorate the 25th year anniversary of 'Remember the Titans' with a grand celebration.
On September 19, Alexandria City High School will commemorate the 25th anniversary of the iconic football film "Remember the Titans." The celebration, scheduled to take place at the school, will honour the 1971 T.C. Williams Titans, whose real-life story served as the basis for the movie.
The event promises to be a memorable one, featuring a student pep rally, Titan tailgate, and a tribute to the 1971 Titans team. Tickets for the event will be available soon, and it is expected to attract fans of the film and the original 1971 Titans team.
Denzel Washington, who starred as Coach Herman Boone in the film, led the team through racial tensions to an undefeated season and state championship. The school's new name, following a renaming in 2021 due to community concerns about its previous namesake, is not specified in the provided information.
The celebration will also likely include recognition of the achievements and impact of the 1971 Titans team on the community. Although the specific activities planned beyond the student pep rally, Titan tailgate, and tribute to the 1971 Titans team are not yet known, more information is expected to be shared in the coming weeks.
The event will feature special guests and fun surprises, all in the spirit of Titan pride. However, the identities of these special guests are not yet disclosed. Alexandria City Public Schools has not yet released additional details about the September celebration.
Stay tuned for updates on this exciting event, which is set to take place on Sept. 19 at Alexandria City High School. The celebration is in honour of the team that inspired the Disney film "Remember the Titans," which was released in 2000.
