“Celebrate endings — for they precede new beginnings”.

Prom is short for “promenade,” a French word that means “walk” or “stroll”. The term originated in the 16th century and was used to describe a place for strolling, such as a public walkway or ship deck. The first proms, called “Promenades,” were held in the early 1800s by universities as a way to celebrate wealth and social standing, and for young men to show off their manners. By the late 1890s, proms had moved to high schools for senior classes, and had evolved from semi-formal dances held in school gyms into a formal dance party. Today, prom is a celebration and rite of passage for graduating high school students, often held in late spring. It’s a unique way to mark the transition from adolescence to adulthood, and can include other activities such as dinners, group photo sessions, and afterparties. Prom has become associated with many extravagant traditions, such as expensive dresses, tuxedos, makeup, limousines, and promposals. On average, American families spend $919 per child on prom.

Is hat and sweater season officially over? Are we in the clear with warm, sun-filled days ahead? Or is Father Winter lurking in the cold shadows waiting to wrap his icy cold fingers over the sun?
