Coral Shores homecoming festivities were in full gear on Oct. 25 as Miss Coral Shores contestants, homecoming court and musicians and athletes from the various Upper Keys schools paraded on the Old Highway. A sea of spectators watched the procession of floats, bands and performers from both sides of the highway. Young parade spectators eagerly awaited the candy tossing, and some floats even engaged in some water gun warfare. Laura Lietaert, Coral Shores principal who was named 2023 Principal of the Year in Monroe County, served as homecoming parade marshal. The parade also featured athletes, musicians and performers from Key Largo School, Ocean Studies Charter School, Plantation Key School and Treasure Village Montessori.
