All seniors who are eligible to attend prom are invited to participate in lead out.
Any junior who has worked at least 10 hours on the prom as of Thursday, April 17th are also invited to
participate in lead out.
When you arrive for lead out, please check the lead out table to fill out an announcement slip. Keep the
slip with you because you will need to hand it to the announcer when it is your turn.
NOTE: No one under the age of 14 may participate in lead out.
Lead Out Passes
Each senior who is participating in lead out will receive at least four lead out passes to distribute to their
families or friends. Students who are attending prom, but not participating in lead out will not need a lead
out pass, they will simply use their prom tickets to watch the procession.
All lead out pass holders should enter the gym door next to the cafeteria. Once inside, they should remain
seated in the bleachers. These guests will be asked to leave at the conclusion of lead out.
Lead out passes must be picked up in person—you may not have a friend pick them up for you--on Friday,
April 18 from 11:30-4 pm in Ms. Dixon’s classroom between classes or after school.
Any passes that have not been given to seniors will be distributed to Juniors who have worked 10 hours as
of Thursday, April 17. These juniors may begin picking up passes at 5 pm at Jones Gym. REMEMBER:
Juniors are not guaranteed passes—our ability to provide passes to the juniors is based on how many
passes are left once the seniors have received theirs. If they receive any at all, the juniors will receive lead
out passes on a “first come, first serve” basis.
Prom Tickets
Prom tickets will be distributed at the door on Prom night from a list of those students who have either sold
magazines or purchased tickets.
Tickets are $30 each.
Prom tickets may be purchased from Mrs. Haughaboo, Mrs. Holmes, or Mrs. Page beginning on
Wednesday, March 26.
