Prom meets expectations

Lily Lewis-Stump

Walking into the Windows on Washington venue on May 9, juniors and seniors were greeted with vibrant drapes hung from the ceiling, balloons scattered around the area, and expectations met for the Bollywood-themed annual prom.

Even though it seemed likely that turnout would be bleak, due to the requirement of 90% attendance to buy a ticket along with the senior class’s poor attendance this year, the event seemed jam-packed. Students from the Lieberman Learning Center and students that have transferred to other schools were in appearance.

Upon arrival at the prom students could take professional pictures and listen to music as all of the guests slowly trickled in.

Throughout the evening a DJ played the latest hits to which the students, and some teachers, danced. Ms. Pezzolla drew attention with her dance moves.

Students began arriving at 7 pm, dined around 9 pm and danced the night away until the unwanted end at 11 pm.
