Prom is a night that all teenagers remember, whether it be because it was the best night of their lives or the worst. AHS student news takes an inside look at how prom night went from attendees’ perspectives.
Prom was loud and lively, everyone dressed to impress and looked amazing. But how was prom from a student’s perspective?
Kai’yah Baxter, a senior, had this to say: “I think it was beautiful,” I loved when they were giving out glow sticks. Everyone was throwing them up in the air thinking they was lit. overall I’d say it was 8 out of 10, I would definitely go again if I could. ”
Overall it seems like Baxter had a great time, even when asked if there was anything she thought could’ve been better, she only had this to say: “ The music was OK. I’m a early 2000s girl so I would wish to hear more of that.”
Baxter isn’t the only one who was happy with how prom turned out. Megan Schmidt, an English teacher and prom sponsor had this to say about prom: “ I think it went well. I wasn’t in the music room a lot that evening, but from what I could tell I think it went really well because every time I passed the room tons and tons of students were on the dance floor to the point it was people spilling over to the next room.” “ If anything I think the venue came out better than we imagined,” Schmidt said.
When asked if she thought anything went wrong or if there was anything she would’ve done differently, Schmidt said, “ I think the parking situation could have been a bit better, not a lot of students filled out the form that told us how they were getting there, thankfully there was an overflow of parking.” “ I would say overall prom went really well, the prom committee did a great job getting everything set up.”
Though most of the comments and opinions about prom were positive, Mckayla Maiden~Swain, a junior, had this to say. “ I didn’t get any food, by the time I got there it was all gone.” “ I think they could’ve done better with the music. They could have played other stuff other than songs people only know ten seconds of, the dance floor was a little small and cramped”
Overall prom this year was a hit. Students had a night to remember and a night for prom committee and something to be more than proud of.
