Prom season is an exciting time for high school students, filled with anticipation and preparation for one of the most memorable nights of their lives. As friends gather to celebrate the end of the school year, and cherish the few remaining high school days, the atmosphere is filled with eagerness and fun. Whether it’s glamorous outfits, the lively music, or the shared laughter, prom marks a significant moment in every student’s journey.
Students often spend weeks preparing for prom, choosing outfits, making plans with friends, and organizing transportation. The C. Milton Wright prom is held on May 3, 2025, at the Martin Valleys Mansion, allowing plenty of time to complete preparations. Prom begins at 7:00pm and goes on until 11:00pm. Both the guest and C. Milton Wright student tickets are $55.
Students are still waiting to hear what this year’s prom theme will be as well as waiting for guest tickets to be released. Aubre Simms shares, “The guest tickets have still not been released and it’s stressing me out.” While students are eager and growing impatient with the lack of communication, the list of the various food being supplied has been listed: a caesar salad, chicken piccata, Italian meatballs, shrimp/crab cakes, penne pasta, broccoli, garlic mashed potatoes, an ice cream bar, and a chocolate skyscraper cake.
After prom, students will make their way to The Arena Club where there will be an after-prom party. An after-prom party is the perfect way to continue the excitement of the night. As the main event comes to an end, friends gather to end the night celebrating together. The theme is VIVA Las Vegas and there will be raffles and games for the students to participate in. The after-prom party goes from 11:30pm to 3:00am.
Prom is a night filled with laughter, excitement, and final memories of students’ high school careers before everyone embarks on their new adventures. As the final song plays, and the lights dim, the experiences shared will linger long after the night ends, reminding us of the journey students have taken together, and the bright futures that lie ahead of them. As many say, once a mustang, always a mustang.
