memo Montague Regional High School 2014 PROM Information To: Students Attending Prom, Parents, Guardians From: Seana Evans-Renaud Date: May 14, 2014 Details: This year, the grad class voted that Prom would consist of the procession and a dance with finger foods. This year’s Prom will be held on Friday, June 13, 2014, at Montague Regional High School, 274 Valleyfield Road. Tickets will be sold from May 26 to June 6, 2014, at a cost of $25 per person. Grads must have their signed contracts and have student fees paid in order to purchase tickets. Students should make note of the following time-line: 6:00 to 6:20 pm – Grads and dates arrive at MRHS to line up 6:30 to 7:15 pm – Procession: around the front of the school, entering through the main entrance 7:30 to 9:30 pm – Dance and Finger Foods in the MRHS Cafeteria Grads and dates/escorts may be dropped off around the loop in front of the main entrance of the school. Special Prom vehicles will park in the bus parking lot. Prom students driving themselves will park in the student parking lot. Parking for all other vehicles will be available at the Wellness Centre, Access PEI, and Hillcrest United Church. RCMP will be present to strictly enforce parking rules. In order to ensure the safety of all those attending the Prom events, and to allow parents and the public to line the procession route safely, all access to the main entrance road will be cut off at 6:20 pm after which NO vehicles will be permitted to enter. Grads: This means that if you want to participate in the procession, you must be at the school before 6:20 pm. At 6:30 pm, the grads and dates/escorts will exit the school through the door at the teacher parking lot entrance and proceed around to the front of the building and in through the main entrance. There will be ample space for parents to line the procession loop in order to see everyone. After the procession, only grads and their dates will enter the cafeteria for the dance. Parents are invited to take lots of pictures during the procession. There will be a photo station inside the school where students will have the option of having their photo taken. In case of inclement weather, a scaled-down version of the procession will take place inside the school, for parents and guardians with “rain tickets”. Each grad will receive two “rain tickets” when they purchase their Prom tickets. Once students have left the school during the dance, they will not be permitted to re-enter the building. There will be no kit bags allowed in the school during the dance. One last thing… In an effort to make the Prom a night to remember, the students of the Prom Committee encourage students to stay until the very end so they may enjoy the company of good friends.
