The theme for Northwoods 2024 prom on May 16th was recently selected by the prom committee as Midsummer. The theme follows the color palette and decoration style of the midsummer festival tradition in Switzerland. There will be lots of colorful pastel flowers with fairy lights, making it a very spring-themed prom.
There will be a photo booth and a mirror for pictures. For food, there will be a burrito station and a pasta station with salad and gluten-free options. The reception in the living room starts at 5:45 p.m. and goes on until 7:00 p.m. for photos. Dinner and dancing will follow that until 10:30 pm. From 10:30 until midnight, there will be lawn games on the turf and gatherings in the living room.
For our day students, please note that driving to the prom is not permitted. You must be dropped off and picked up at the main entrance. If you’re planning to participate in one of the after-prom gatherings, you’re welcome to stay on campus until midnight. However, if you choose to leave campus after the prom begins, re-entry will not be allowed.
For boarding students, you cannot leave campus after prom begins. If you are participating in one of the after-prom gatherings, you’re on-call time is midnight. If you leave any gathering, you are to stay on your hall for the rest of the night.
Guests attending prom are allowed to participate in all prom-related activities until midnight. They are not allowed to drive themselves or on the dorm halls.
Prom is a night filled with excitement and a perfect way to wrap up the year. We encourage all attendees to have a fantastic time while making responsible choices. Your safety and enjoyment are our top priorities.
