High school seniors in Kearny and Bayonne can look forward to putting on their tuxedos and lavish gowns this spring, but not all Hudson County schools will be able to enjoy the senior milestone.
Gov. Phil Murphy paved the way for proms which were canceled last year because of the coronavirus pandemic when he announced Wednesday that he was removing all restrictions on the number of people at outdoor gatherings as of May 19.

SAN DIEGO San Diego Unified is joining local leaders in a countywide push to get more teens, as well as community members vaccinated, specifically in areas with low vaccination numbers.
Monday, they opened walk-up clinics at three high schools, with
more planned throughout the week. The clinic is for anyone 16 and up. Here we are and I just got my first dose which is really nice, said Mayte Valderas.
UCSD will administer Pfizer vaccines on Wednesday at Morse High School and on Thursday at San Diego High School.
“It is important to get as many people in our community vaccinated, and that includes eligible students,” said San Diego Unified Pediatrician Dr. Howard Taras. “Children used to account for 4 or 5% of all (COVID-19) cases. At the end of April, they accounted for 15% of cases, and the proportion of all cases that are children continues to rise.”
The schools hosting the clinics have notified families about the free vaccines and provided them with a parent consent form that must be signed for students younger than 18 to receive a vaccine, according to SDUSD.
