Prom

The juniors and seniors sat huddled together like cattle under the flourescent lights on Wednesday Jan.7 missing their late start. The usual giddy excitement which goes along with the territory of prom could be felt in the vibrations of murmurs and speculation.  Just what could the prom theme be?  Well ladies, the time has come for us to find out.

 

At the Prom Announcement block this year's theme for prom was unveiled to the masses via a Real World parody video.  Una Sera Bella Italia, translating to "A Beautiful Night in Italy." This years colors, keeping up with the Italian tradition, will be red, black and white making for quite the traditional dance.

 

"We have been working really hard on getting everything together.  Now that the announcement is over I feel like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders.  All we have to do now is work on the decorations and getting everything put together," said Prom Committee member junior Jenn Seidel.

 

The Prom Committee has been working very hard since October to make for the ideal prom for all.  Everything from the presents for the Princesses to the D.J. at the dance has to be decided by this group of girls.

 

"I think that prom will be fun.  It will be the last time that all of my friends and I get to dance the night away in formal dresses.  The prom announcement made me really excited to go," said senior Christine Sebby.

 

Sebby has reason to be excited for Prom this year being that she was one of the nine girls from the senior class to be named Prom Princess.  Along with Sebby, voted on by the senior class, Christine Geistkemper, Colleen Kelly, Sarah Lathrop, Jessica McSharry, Brigitte Moland, Maria Santiago-Garcia, Leslie Selting, and Beth Worthington will represent their class at prom.

 

Now that the guessing game is over, what will the lunch tables will sound like for the next few weeks?  Until April 24, Ciao!
