Holiday Dance

By Maddie and Olivia

On December 14, 2007, the Middle School students danced, ate and had fun at the annual winter semi-formal. Mrs. Johnson-Ebright, Ms. Hunt and Ms. Nastazi joined us as chaperones.


When we looked at the outfits of the students this year, the colors ranged from classic black to pink polka dots! Some specific styles were the classic short party dress and the popular bubble dress. Both dresses are cut at the knee or higher, but the classic short cut is a flowy dress, while the bubble dress hems inside the dress creating a bubble of fabric. The guys were wearing the semi-casual collared shirt and trousers, but some wore jeans and a t-shirt. So you can conclude that girls get more into the dressing up, compared to guys.

Some students said they weren’t so thrilled with the dance because they wanted different music styles, or they were disappointed with the turnout. So we encourage you all to enjoy the next dance with your friends.
