After Prom: May 21, 2017 -- 12:00 am to 3:00 am

After Prom is $10 per student, and can be paid for through the EZ Pay system. Students may also purchase tickets for their senior or non-senior guests in the spring when prom tickets are sold. The goal for after prom is to provide a safe, enjoyable place for students to attend after the prom. After prom will be at the North Canton Skate Center (address and directions will be provided at the time of ticket purchase). Food, prizes, and games including roller skating, bumper cars, laser tag, Euro bungy, rock wall climbing, etc… will be available. We hope to see all seniors attend!

The success of after prom depends largely on the involvement of a committee of parents who plan and stage the event, secure parent volunteers, secure door prizes, secure food donations, among other things. We need parents to become involved with after prom! If you are interested in serving on the after prom committee, e-mail Mr. Granito at the address below.
