The class of 2016 prom was a huge success! The juniors showed up decked to the nines and ready to party.  Prom was held at the Trumbull Marriott where the theme was “A Night in Paris”.

A photo booth provided juniors with pictures to take home and savor the memories of the day.  A professional photographer was also in attendance where students could have a formal picture taken.

The King and Queen, Patrick LaPenna and Erin Dillman, celebrated their victory at the Shelton Sports Center, by ice skating, playing laser tag, and going mini-golfing.  The sports center provided the perfect venue for juniors to enjoy themselves and burn off some calories from the ice cream and candy bar at the dance.  “I would just like to thank everyone for putting together an outstanding night.  Everyone looked absolutely stunning.  It honestly felt like a dream coming true, and I am happy to have experienced that with my best friend right by my side,” said Dillman.

Upon arrival, juniors and their dates put their tickets into raffle bags.  Some prizes were GoPros, a TV, a Macbook, and various gift cards.  All Foran juniors were able to play in this raffle, whereas anyone attending who was not a junior could be participate in a different one.  Some of these prizes included gift certificates to spas, gift baskets, and jewelry.  The largest and most desired prize was a 2005 Toyota Camry.  Tori Edwards was the lucky winner.

From the junior class, thank you to all the parents and chaperones, especially Ms. Hart and Ms. DeFonzo, the junior class advisors who worked so hard to organize and plan the special day for the class of 2016.
