On Saturday, March 31st at King’s Caterers
II in Bristol, from 6p.m. to 10:30 p.m., the juniors attended the
prom. “Wonderful Tonight” filled the atmosphere while
everyone looked their best and was on their best behavior.
The junior class officers Rachael Horne, Lindsay Jones, Tori Mecleary
and Sara Ott arranged this memorable night for the juniors with
a little help from the junior class advisor, Gina Girotti. The prom
was an overall success. “Everyone looked wonderful and acted
mature and responsible,” Girotti said.
The class officers and their peers thought up the theme for the
big night. “The officers asked some of their friends about
some suggestions for the prom.” stated Girotti. The five best
suggestions were given to the entire junior class to vote on. The
end result was “Wonderful Tonight” by Eric Clapton.
A total of 624 students attended the prom along with 30 chaperones.
There was no limit on the number of students that could attend.
“It’s not fair to tell them sorry you can’t come.
You don’t want students to feel cheated out on a special night,”
Girotti said. However there were some restrictions upon attending
the prom. You could not have more than 10 absences and no more than
one “F” in the second marking period.
When the night arrived students came in limos, sports cars, scooters
and on horseback. No matter what type of transportation, they all
attended for one specific purpose: to have fun. “ I am so glad
with the outcome of the junior prom and the number of juniors that
attended,” said junior class officer Lindsay Jones.
The night flew by for those who attended. After dinner the dance
floor was completely crowded with people. The hours flew by like
minutes and before you knew it the night was over. “It doesn’t
feel like it should have been over so quickly,” Jones said.
Next year the sophomores have a prom to look forward to. Hopefully
theirs’ will have the same effect that it had on the juniors.
Girotti offers some advice for those who will attend next year,
“ Make sure you arrive at the prom on time so you can enjoy
every moment of this once in a life time evening.”
