On prom day, you must attend at least two blocks of school for eligibility to attend the prom. An HGTC class counts as a block as well, and if you only have one class in your schedule, you must attend that class. Tickets and early dismissal passes will be given out at the end of your second block class on March 31st.
Early Dismissal:
* If you plan to leave school early on the day of prom, the early dismissal form located in the front of each house must be signed and returned to A103 after you purchase your ticket.
* No early dismissal forms will be accepted after Friday, March 24th.
* You should place this form in the file holder on the wall outside of Mrs. Perry’s room.
* A parent can always send a note or physically come to CF & sign you out the day of prom as well.
* Each guest will need their own early dismissal form turned in.
* If you choose to leave early, this is an unexcused absence, so plan your time wisely.
Once ticket sales begin, professional prom photography information from School Bell Studio will be emailed to students. Use this information to decide which picture package you would like to purchase and bring your money to the prom for the photographer. You may not pay for prom photos after prom night.
We hope that all the preparation that has been made will ensure that you will have a safe, wonderful evening. If you should have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact Mrs. Perry in A103.
Sincerely,
Gaye Driggers, Principal
