Prom
SHS PROM 2019 .... We are currently working to verify numbers for PROM 2019. In order to do so, we need a list of ALL students attending and whether or not they are taking a guest with them. The Prom is taking place on June 1, 2019 at the Best Western PLUS on Spectacle Lake Drive in Burnside. Dinner will be from 6-8 pm followed by the dance from 8 to Midnight. We are going to be running fundraisers giving families the opportunity to help offset the costs but those not interested in doing so, will be required to contact June Carvery in any of the following ways: junecarvery@icloud.com / 902-221-7376 / FB Page SHS PROM 2019.
