This was a special year for the juniors and seniors of Lawrence-Nelson High School. Students were able to celebrate all of the things they didn't get to do last year...including prom. Prom was held Saturday. The juniors planned all year for this big night. From the food to the decorations, not a single detail was spared.

This year's prom theme was "Southern Charm." The juniors, a simple and easy-going class, chose to do something rustic, yet chic and sophisticated, fitting their personalities perfectly. They took all day Friday to decorate the elementary multi-purpose room and gym.

Students began filling the school dressed to the nines, ready for pictures and then the public promenade. Once all students and their dates were introduced, it was time to announce this year's prom king and queen. Past royalty, Jayden Jorgensen and Mattee Kucera, passed on their crowns to the students who received the most votes. This year's prom king and queen were seniors, Ayden West and Jessica Himmelberg. They were joined by senior prom court members, Emily Miller, Avery Mazour, Blake Janda, and Paul Grimes.

After the crowning, dinner was served in the multi-purpose room. Catered by Moonlight BBQ, Fairfield, students were fed a meal of brisket, cheesy potatoes, green beans and a roll. Homemade cupcakes by Shannon Ostdiek were served for dessert.

Once they were full, it was time to party down. The students danced the night away, never seeing an empty dance floor. From the looks of it, the students made the most of the long night and had a ton of fun.

After prom, students were bussed to Superior for bowling, food, and prizes during post prom. Students walked away with great memories and some pretty cool gadgets. Overall, the night was a smashing success and the students finally got to enjoy some bit of normalcy.
