Brick Memorial High School’s Junior Prom: A Night of Enchantment in Our Own Gymnasium

Last night, Brick Memorial High School’s junior class celebrated their annual Junior Prom, marking a significant departure from tradition by hosting the event within the school’s gymnasium for the first time in many years. Despite initial concerns, the dedication of the junior class officers, numerous volunteers, and the guidance of class advisors Mrs. Rebecca Decker and Mrs. Bridget Petrulla ensured that the gymnasium was transformed into a breathtaking Enchanted Garden.

Mr. Barresi, the school’s vice principal, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “This is easily one of the best dances – not just proms – but dances we’ve had at Brick Memorial High School.” The students echoed this sentiment, marveling at the stunning metamorphosis of the gymnasium into a prom venue and showcasing exemplary behavior throughout the night.

The event was made possible by the invaluable contributions of dedicated chaperones who not only ensured the safety of the attendees but also actively participated in the festivities. The culinary delights served by “Be Your Guest” added a touch of sophistication, further enhancing the overall experience.

Amidst the enchanting ambiance, Harvey Ludington and Brooke DeAlmeida were crowned as Prom King and Queen, a testament to their kindness and character within the school community. The prom court, consisting of Nyla Caetano, Callie Thompson, Morgan Satter, Jody Martinez, Aiden Crawford, Jakub Kriso, Malachi Saint-Vil, and Kevin Andrews, added to the evening’s splendor with their presence and poise.

As Brick Memorial High School continues to foster a culture of excellence and innovation, the success of the Junior Prom serves as a shining example of what can be achieved through teamwork, creativity, and a commitment to creating unforgettable experiences for students.

It truly was a great night to be a Mustang!
