The Jonathan Law Class of 2021 is having a prom! Prom will be held at Quassy Amusement Park on May 12 from 4:30 p.m. to midnight. Alexis Broderick interviewed Senior Class President Angel Santiago to discuss this upcoming event.
Alexis Broderick: How did the plan to have Prom at an amusement park come about?
Angel Santiago: It came about because we wanted to give the full experience of prom. That includes prom and post prom. Lake Quassy was perfect in between because we will be able to have normal prom under a tent in the park and then post prom will be all of us riding the rides.
AB: What are some rules and regulations that will be at prom?
AS: Some of the rules around prom is that everyone does have to wear masks and the only people allowed at prom are Jonathan Law seniors.
AB: What is the attire and how did you come up with that decision?
AS: The attire is formal. We came to this decision because we want prom to feel like prom. That means everyone goes all out with their attire. We also wanted to make sure those people who already bought dresses were able to wear them at prom.
AB: What is some of the feedback you heard from fellow seniors?
AS: I have heard a lot of good things coming from seniors. I think everyone is just happy that prom will be as normal as it can during a global pandemic.
AB:What is your ultimate goal for the night?
AS: My ultimate goal for the night is to make it an event that no one will forget.
