SENIOR WALK & CORONATION
The Senior Walk will begin promptly at 8 p.m. Seniors will need to arrive at the the Rankin Gardens & Atrium no later than 7:30 p.m. to begin lining up. Parents are welcome to attend pictures and the Senior Walk portion of the Prom. After each senior is introduced and honored, there will be a class photo taken. Immediately following the Senior Walk, the Prom King and Queen and Prince and Princess Coronation and first dance will take place. After the first dance, it is requested that all parents be dismissed.

MUSIC REQUESTS
The Music Prom Committee is currently compiling a playlist. Please submit requests using this online form. Enter the title and the artist’s name that you would like to hear the DJ play. A compiled list will be given to the DJ. Inappropriate song selections will not be added to the playlist. Music requests will be accepted at Prom, but must be on the playlist. Only clean versions will be played. Please remember this is an elegant event and the song list should be inclusive of different genres and taste. Music played at a large event isn’t necessarily music you would listen to in your car. Please be mindful and considerate in your requests.

NO RE-ENTRY
Once a student checks in, they will not be allowed to leave and return. Every student must check in upon arrival and check out upon departure.

ATTIRE
Please ensure Prom attire falls within the general dress guidelines of "modest, clean and appropriate for a Catholic school environment," as referenced in our High School Handbook Addendum (page 19). Any students who have questions about their dress for the dance are welcome to bring in their dress for approval prior to the event.
