B-OHS sophomores, juniors, seniors celebrate with end-of-school-year Prom 2016
“Tonight, Tonight” happened last night.
Last night (Saturday, May 14) – into the wee morning hours of Sunday, May 15 – Butterfield-Odin Public High School (B-OHS) sophomores, juniors and seniors celebrated with a traditional end-of-the-school-year Prom 2016 under the theme, “Tonight, Tonight.”
The event kicked off with photo sessions by LifeTouch, followed by the Grand March in the decorated school gym, the prom attendees introduced to the public by Masters of Ceremony Dennis Stade and Nathan Fast.
Following the Grand March, a dance was held in the gym until prom-goers boarded a bus at 10:45 p.m. to head to the After-Prom Party at St. James Bowling. The special night came to a close when the participants returned to B-OHS at 2:30 a.m.
Assisting with the Prom were Junior Class advisors Mary Jacobs and Mark Kurseth.
