Saturday, April 24th EHS took a step back into the Roaring 20s for prom 2021. After the disappointment of all things cancelled last year due to COVID, this year it was a relief to be able to celebrate, even with some limitations.

The Prom Court was Grace Johnson, Baylee Anderson, and Kara Schipper with Andrew Schipper, Seth Copeland, and Dean Otten. The Grand March started the evening off with Kara Schipper crowned as queen and Andrew Schipper crowned as king.

Then students were bussed to Vista Grande in Clinton, Iowa for dinner and a dance. No outside guests were allowed, but underclassmen could be invited. Mask and social distancing were required, and there was no slow dancing. There were approximately 120 students in attendance.

Unlike Cinderella, the night wasn’t over as it struck midnight. Parents put on an after prom at Elevate trampoline park in Davenport, Iowa.
