Highlights School Life The climax of the first year at Independence High School came on April 22. 1967 when the first Junior-Senior Prom was held in the mall. With money raised from class dues and the “Miss Independence” pageant, the juniors gave the affair in honor of the first graduating class. Around the theme, “A Green and Gold Ball”, the mall was decorated in those colors in tissue flowers centered around a fountain which was located on the “I” Refreshment tables were covered with green and gold cloths, and decorated with candles and flowers. Tables for eating and relaxed conversation were placed around the balcony and decorated with candles floating in brandy sniffers. At the height of the evening, club presidents, team captains, publication editors, class officers, and Student Council officers were presented in the Grand March in recognition of their achievements during the first year of Independence history. April 22 was an evening of excitement and romance which was thoroughly enjoyed and will be long remembered by all those who attended. The Loonis McGlohon Orchestra provided the music for the prom. Dancing becomes more exciting as the music takes a faster turn. 25
