Prom season is coming up and the Halton District School Board (HDSB) is hoping to make it as affordable as possible for all families.
The HDSB will host open houses in May for students to select, at no cost, donated formal wear for upcoming prom or graduation events. It’s called ‘Fashion Forward’. Students will have the opportunity to view and try on formal wear in a friendly and welcoming environment. Students may select from a variety of new and gently-used attire that has been donated for proms, graduations and other special events. There are many different styles, colours and sizes of formal dresses available as well as suits, shirts, ties and shoes.
They will happen on Monday, May 9th and Tuesday, May 17th. Each open house runs from 2:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. and will be held at Elsie MacGill Secondary School at 1410 Bronte Street South in Milton.
Students are required to bring student identification to the open house they attend.
