In addition to showcasing our seniors, this year we honored the amazing Donnie Simpson, with our James Vance Service Award. Please enjoy photos from all 7 of our balls and visit our Support Us page to support the school in providing the R.O.P.E.S. (Rights of Passage Empowering Students) courses for seniors.
