PROM ATTIRE
As the excitement for the upcoming Prom builds, we would like to remind all attendees of the dress code in place to ensure a formal and elegant atmosphere for this special occasion.
In an effort to maintain the formality of the event, we kindly request that no jeans be worn to the Prom. Instead, we ask that gentlemen adhere to a minimum dress code of dress pants and a suit jacket. For ladies, we recommend dresses or professional attire. If you have specific questions or need clarification, please contact Shannon Eidam-Dyer at seidamdyer@ortn.edu
All Seniors are invited to come join us on May 1st in the Food Court at 2:15 for The Senior Tea hosted by the English Dept. and ORHS PTSO. Enjoy tea, light refreshments, and socializing. Dress as your favorite literary character or author to win door prizes!
