That’s what the seniors at Westwood Heights Hamady High School wanted.
With COVID-19 protocols in place, and waiting for months amidst different state and national orders, a prom just wasn’t possible – not in time for students to get dresses and suits.
“We wanted them to have a prom, and last year unfortunately the students had to miss out. Because everything has been out of the ordinary for them over the last year, we wanted to bring some routine back into their lives,” said Dionna Ross, principal of Hamady Middle/High School. “They look forward to prom. They look forward to graduation.

MT. MORRIS TWP., MI – Victoria Adams has been anxiously awaiting the chance to go back to school.
She and her 17-year-old sister Whitney Adams – both seniors – have been growing tired of virtual learning from home. It had been nearly one year since they stepped foot in a classroom at Hamady Middle/High School.
Victoria was growing weary. She missed her junior softball season altogether.
Whitney missed learning from teachers alongside her classmates face to face.
“I hated online,” Victoria said. “It was just too much.”
Whitney was quick to add she didn’t like online school either.
