Hanover Central High School Prom Information
As the end of the school year draws near, we know the students are only getting more
excited about the biggest school event of the year, Prom. The Junior Class is working
diligently to make Prom a night to remember. Please keep in mind that Prom is an
extracurricular event. Attending Prom is a privilege to students, not a right. Listed below,
you will find some general information and answers to questions that you may have.
Prom
Prom will be held at the Hellenic Cultural Center located in Merrillville on Saturday,
May 10th from 6-11pm. The doors will open at 6pm, dinner will be served at
approximately 7:15pm and Prom Court will take place approximately 9:30pm.
Prom Tickets
Prom Tickets will go on sale 3 weeks prior to prom. The cost is $45.00 for a single and
$85.00 for a couple. All checks should be made out to Hanover Central High School.
They will be sold on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays during Success Period. On
Tuesdays and Thursdays tickets may be purchased during SRT. All tickets will be sold in
room 307, Mrs. Suarez’s room. However, there will be a few dates that Mrs. Suarez will
make herself available during lunch time. Those dates will be announced at a later date.
Guest Pass Forms
If you are bringing a guest from another school or that is out of school you must fill-out a
guest pass. The guest passes are located in the main office. Please get the pass filled out
and returned to the secretary by May 2, 2014. All guests must be 20 years of age or
younger and a minimum of a sophomore in high school. No Freshman will be allowed to
attend prom.
Dress Code
On the Hanover Central website is a copy of the Prom Dress Code. It is important to
remember that the students will be representing Hanover Central High School the night
of Prom. We would like to keep Prom a formal and classy event. If a student’s clothing
does not meet the dress code set forth they may be asked to leave the event.
Attendance
Like any other extracurricular event, the students must be present at school in order to be
eligible to attend. Thus, all students will be expected to attend a full day of school on
Friday, May 9th unless they have an excused absence. If you have any questions related to
this topic please direct them to Mr. Biggs.
Pictures
The pictures will be takes by Larry Titak Photography. The tickets will be taken at the
prom venue in another room. Picture forms will be handed out with the purchase of prom
tickets. Extra forms will be available that night. Please make all checks payable to Larry
Titak Photography. When the pictures arrive, they are to be picked up from Mrs. Suarez
either during Success Periods or SRT on a Tuesday or Thursday.
Grande March
The Grande March will take place at Hanover Central High School at 4:15. This event
should end at approximately 5:30. Please sign-up with Mrs. Suarez when you purchase
your Prom Tickets. When you arrive at the Grande March please check in at the
designated table to let them know you have arrived. All other questions should be
directed towards Mrs. West.
Side Notes
All students will sign a Prom Agreement form prior to attending prom. The Prom
Agreement is available to view on the school website. This agreement will ensure that all
students are following standards and procedures. If students refuse to obey these policies
and procedures, they will be asked to leave the event. A specific rule to be aware of
states: Drinking and/or drug use will not be tolerated. Any violation will be referred to
the police.
Thank you for your time and cooperation. If you have any further questions please do not
hesitate to contact: Mr. Biggs (Hanover Central High School Principal) or Mrs. Suarez
(Hanover Central Prom Representative).
