Decatur prom planned

Wednesday, April 6, 2011

— The Decatur High School Junior-Senior Prom will be held from 8 p.m. until midnight on April 16.

This year’s event will be themed “Hollywood Nights” and will be held in the Decatur Northside Elementary School Cafateria, according to sponsor Aimee Maynard.

Decatur junior- or senior-high students may purchase tickets for $30 for dates from another class orschool district, with prior approval of the principal. Decatur juniors are exempt from the ticket fee as long as they have paid their class dues or fulfilled their volunteer work, Maynard said. Senior high students may attend for free, she said.

Guys are required to wear a tuxedo or a suit to the event, and girls are asked to wear appropriate formal dresses. Dresses that are extremely low cut in the front or back, that have high slits in the leg or that are too short are not acceptable, Maynard said.
