High schools in the Paradise Valley Unified School District are getting ready for prom season. Knowing that this milestone occasion can add a financial burden on students and their families, the Paradise Valley Education Association (PVEA) is once again partnering with the community to open the Prom Boutique back up so that students can attend the annual soiree without breaking the bank.
Donations are also welcome for hair styling, nail salon, and restaurant gift certificates. These are also a great way to help students enjoy one of the most memorable evenings of their young lives.
The PVEA is doing all they can to ensure the students have a good time and everyone who would like to attend prom is able to do so, despite economic situations.
The community is encouraged to donate items to the boutique. Then, students who would like to visit the shop can select a full prom outfit of his or her choice for free.
The PVEA will hold three different Prom Boutique events throughout the month of April and all PVUSD high school students are invited to attend. The events are all being held at Sweetwater Community School, 4215 E. Andora Dr., Phoenix. Student IDs and face masks are required to attend.
The boutique events will be held these dates:
• Tues., April 11
• Tues., April 18
• Sat., April 22
If anyone in the community would like to donate any items that can be used to fill up the boutique, they are encouraged to do so as soon as possible. Donations can be dropped off at the PVUSD Administrative Center, located at 15002 N. 32nd St., Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. To learn more, e-mail [email protected].
