Attention Seniors and guests of Seniors attending Prom: A parking garage is available in the Convention Center.  The cost of parking will be approximately $12.00.  A parking map can be found on the NASH homepage under the link for Prom.  Due to a Pirate game on Saturday night and the Pittsburgh Marathon on Sunday, plan to give yourself a few extra minutes to arrive due to traffic and/ or road closures.  Check-in at the Prom Registration Desk will begin at 7:30. You must arrive before 8:00 p.m. when dinner will be served. A committee of administration, staff and security will register all students by cross checking student registration and tickets.  Boys should wear formal attire, a suit or sport coat and tie. No shorts will be permitted.   Girls should wear semi-formal dresses or formal gowns. Clutch purses will be the only bags allowed into the prom and post prom.  Do not bring any type of bag other than a clutch to either function.  See you at the prom! Drive Safely.

Attention Seniors:  Senior t-shirts have been delivered.  The cost of the shirt is $15. They can be purchased in room 313 or 319 any day by checks written out to NASH or exact cash only.  They can also be purchased during Senior Banquet ticket sales next week in the auditorium foyer. Also, if you can talk your parents into donating water, beverages or cookies for the Post Prom, direct them to the email that they received last week to find out how; it would be greatly appreciated.
