On April 19th Campo is having their junior prom. They revealed the theme on Friday March 7 at lunch in the quad. The theme for the 2025 junior prom is Roaring Red Gala. The event attracted a large crowd within the first two minutes of lunch.
At lunch, leadership students set up a stand to show all the students the upcoming prom theme. Junior Lucy Kao says, “I think it’s a good theme, I just wish we were allowed to wear long dresses if it’s a gala because I feel like that’s more gala. Everyone’s supposed to wear short dresses.” Wearing short dresses to prom is rising in popularity as it is a more modern and comfortable style. Kao also said she’s very excited to be attending with friends. Junior Tejin Chung thinks the theme is exciting and he’s excited to go. Junior Bobby Silverman says, “It sounds interesting, about the red theme. I’m not too sure what the specifics are.” Many students agree with this and are excited to be attending the prom with friends.
When asked about what his thoughts on the theme were junior Hanson Ma said, “It’s kind of confusing. I didn’t really get what it meant at first.” This was the case for many other students at Campo. He’s also excited to be attending prom. Junior Nishta Mukundan said, “I still don’t know what it means but it’s fine. I’m sure it’ll be nice.” Many students find the theme confusing or are unsure of what it means, seeing as it wasn’t clearly explained. She is excited to be attending the prom with friends, like many others.
Junior Scarlett Campbell said that her and her class officers had discussed the best theme options and narrowed it down to the “Roaring Red” theme. When asked about the reactions she’d seen, she said, “I haven’t really seen any reactions because I mainly handed out envelopes but I’ll see in the next following days but so far it’s been good.”
Many see the junior prom as an opportunity to reflect and celebrate the past year with friends who have braved the journey with them.
