HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF) – With prom season right around the corner, the question is if schools in Horry County will hold the event in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
According to Lisa Bourcier, spokesperson for Horry County Schools, each school in the district will decide on its events with the assistance of its student council.
Bourcier said she has not heard of any final plans at this point. She added that schools will promote events to their individual student bodies via their school website and/or Facebook.
