Prom traditions

Prom traditions typically include students dressing in formal attire, such as tuxedos and evening gowns, to celebrate their upcoming graduation. A significant event is the prom night, often held at a banquet hall or hotel, featuring music, dancing, and socializing. Common customs involve couples attending together, sometimes with group arrangements or prom kings and queens, chosen through student votes. Many students take photos, participate in a formal walk or procession, and enjoy dinner and entertainment. These traditions serve as a celebratory milestone, marking the transition from high school to the next chapter of life with a shared sense of accomplishment and community.
