Snow and rain couldn’t stop everyone from looking good. The Banquet was a classy affair, with everyone on their best behavior. Everyone was served a chicken dinner with a delicious dessert to top things off. The decorations were a sight to see, both at the Banquet and the Prom. Congratulations go to the Junior Class for all their hard work. Matt. Mark.
