Armijo Highschool is holding prom! Prom is April 19th and its being held in Sacramento Ca. I interviewed Sheena Beeson the person that oversees all the details of prom. Armijo High Schools prom is being held at the Sacramento Library Galleria, Sheena says “ we picked this place because its a giant gorgeous ballroom with really pretty windows and a balcony we can decorate and it is the right size for prom.”. Now Armijo hasn’t always had their prom in Sacramento, before 2020 Armijo held prom is San Francisco. Sheena says “Armijo decided to change from San Francisco to Sacramento because San Francisco was insanely expensive and also kinda sketchy.”.
This years theme for prom is fairytale and how they decided that is very interesting. Sheena comes up with 10 possible themes that they have decorations for then Mr. Towner and he shows the whole leadership. The leadership then goes and decides what their top three options are and Sheena sends them out to vote to the juniors and seniors. The prom committee helps Ms. Sheena Beeson and Mr. Tower throughout the whole planning for prom there are about 30 kids in that committee but everything is through them.
The date of prom is April 19th this year, most would say we are having prom later then normal. We normally have prom end of march early april so were just a little pushed back. They try their best to make sure prom fits everyone’s schedule because they want everyone to be included. Armijo wants to make everyone feel included, there will more then just dancing. Theres going to be food, drinks, activities and games throughout the night. The food they will be having is finger sandwiches, grilled cheese with tomato soup and chicken tenders and it will all be catered. There will be games and party favors at the end. The prom court is also a big thing in High School in general, our prom courts will be announced during prom and they will be crowned. The voting for the courts started and posters are all over school. Prom at Armijo High School is gonna be one you cant forget.
