After Prom

To Junior and Senior Parents: Plans are underway for the Class of 2024 After Prom, scheduled on May 4th, 2024 at Firelands High School. After Prom is a supervised, alcohol-free, drug-free event immediately following prom. The After-Prom Committee, with your support, would like to provide the students a night of fun, games, activities, entertainment, food and prizes. With the financial generosity of the Firelands community, we will be able to fund this event as needed. We hope you will consider supporting this worthwhile effort in providing a positive environment for this year’s Junior and Senior Class. All donations will be used solely to fund After Prom. Please use this form to submit donations.
