Changing Prom Date to June 17

Dear 25th Year Highschoolers,
With our last show being on May 30th – it was not realistic for me to pull off Prom 4 days later. Since the THS overnight trip is currently scheduled for June 10 to 11 (and those reservations weren’t able to be moved), I am moving the Prom to Wednesday, June 17th.
*I apologize to anyone that will now be unable to attend.* I know how much students look forward to this fun evening. *I am sure that no matter what date I moved it to, there would be someone who couldn’t make it.* This is just one of the many frustrations that we are all being forced to deal with right now.
All I can do is to remind everyone that God does not owe us HST, or a Prom, or anything else. He even warned us that this life would be hard because this is not our real home. It is our eternal home, heaven, that will be blissful. This is actually why I believe in a God and life after death. If this unfair, unpredictable, and sometimes miserable life is all there is…..it’s a pretty bum deal. I guess I could choose to believe this life is it (but I’d definitely stop doing tough things like HST and start doing whatever I want), or I can choose to hope for something better. Even though my little human mind can’t figure it all out and make sense of suffering, I’d rather be hopeful and happy, then cynical and self-centered. So *I encourage all of us to use this time of isolation to think beyond ourselves and pray for those who are on the front-lines fighting life and death issues.*
Thank you for being the amazing students that you are. I do hope and pray that we’ll be blessed, once again, with shows and a prom. I promise to keep you posted. Blessings, Mrs. Mullan
PS – You must have been age 15 or older on Dec. 31, 2019 to go to Prom.
