This past Saturday, Watertown High School was the site of "A Grand Affair" - the 2025 WHS Junior Prom. This special event was decorated to the nines in Art Deco styling with a Great Gatsby flair. More than 400 students were in attendance at the dance, with many also attending the Post Prom at the Watertown Elks Lodge. Thank you to the many local businesses that generously donated gifts for door prizes, and to the many WHS staff members and parent volunteers who help make Prom and Post Prom possible each year.
Congratulations to Jack Sullivan and Lydia Meyers for being crowned Prom King and Queen! Members of the 2025 Junior Prom Court include (fourth/back row, from left) Ava Novotny escorted by Garett Harris and Taija Garcia escorted by Drew Schauer, (third row) Sophia Page escorted by Davis Cashin and Allison Howlett escorted by Brady Lessner, (second row) Tessa Schwager escorted by Eli Clark and Gillian Mihalko escorted by Brady Crane, and (front row) Queen Lydia Meyers escorted by King Jack Sullivan.
