Senior Prom

John Marshall Metropolitan High School is hosting their Senior Prom on Friday, May 22, 2009.  There are several school issues that must be completed before we allow our students to begin payment for the prom. 

Completion of the FAFSA is a graduation requirement.  Students must obtain a signature from Mr. Rowans, Post-secondary Coach, stating that the form has been completed. 

 Completion of forty service learning hours is also a graduation requirement.  Students must obtain a signature from Ms. Archibald, counselor, or from Ms. Gaters, Athletic Director stating that the student has completed the forty hours. 

 We want to provide a safe and wonderful experience for our students therefore we are asking that all seniors and their parents sign this form below stating that all safe driving rules and regulations of the road will be obeyed.  We are simply saying “NO DRINKING AND DRIVING”. 

 There is a dress code for all students attending the prom.  This is a school function and all students must be dressed appropriately.  If you have a question whether your dress is appropriate it can be approved by Ms. Butler at any time BEFORE Prom.  Students exhibited clothing that is inappropriate will be asked to leave.  NO REFUNDS. 

John Marshall will call the parent/guardian to pick-up their student from Prom who is in violation of the aforementioned rules. NO REFUNDS.

This form must be completed and returned to T. Butler before payment of senior activity fees.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Ms. Towanna Butler or Mr. Ronald Bellamy at 773-534-6458.
