A tale as old as time…  prom was magical, but the memories will last even longer. Juniors and Seniors danced the night away.  This year’s prom theme was “Beauty and the Beast,” transforming the venue into a fairytale-inspired evening filled with elegant decorations and excitement. It was held at Ciminero’s in Niles. 

Students also enjoyed a dinner that included baked chicken breast, pasta and meatballs, green beans, parsley potatoes, salad, and Dairy Queen cake cups for dessert.

At Promenade, Juniors and Seniors walked with their dates. One of the biggest highlights of the night was the crowning of the 2026 prom king and queen. Last year’s king and queen, Peyton Ford and Jack McDevitt, returned to crown Abigail Hochendoner and Blake Hochendoner as this year’s prom queen and king. The junior class voted to decide who would be on prom court as well as who would receive the titles of king and queen.

“Prom was one of the best nights of my life,” said Skyler Zerucha. 

“Prom was so much fun, I want to go back and relive the moment,”said Gabriella Price. 

Each member of the court was recognized during the evening before the king and queen were announced.
