Three months may sound like a long time, but some students have already started their prom preparations. The dance is May 11th at the Coliseum in downtown St. Petersburg. It starts at 8 and doesn’t end until 11. Makendra Baker, 12th grade, is already prepared. ” I’m so excited about prom, I already have my dress.” Remember Warriors, there is still a fundamental dress code in play. See-through, high splits, having your back showing and short attire are all banned. Guys must wear slacks and a dress shirt.
