Middle School Dance
The middle school dance, Tropical Spring Fling, was a smashing success! We had 38 students from 6th, 7th, and 8th grades attend the first ever Futuro Verde middle school dance. A student-led committee organized the entire event: food, security, games, decorations, music playlist, dress code and space layout. The “lounge” area with couches and beanbags next to the stage was the perfect place to chill and visit with friends. Excellent music provided by our own Futuro Verde student, Axel, had everyone dancing. There was lots of pizza provided by Chelo’s restaurant and delicious desserts provided by the students. This amazing event will now become part of Futuro Verde’s middle school experience.
PROM
Our high school dance, PROM, with the theme “An Arabian Night”, was a great success. The students and their friends enjoyed and danced all night.
The PROM committee was very happy with the results, decorations and the food that parents helped organize, all very popular among the guests. It was a magical night that everyone could enjoy. We would like to thank all the students and parents who supported this student event during the month of November.
We encourage students to apply to be members of the PROM 2020 committee!
