PARENTS - Post Prom Needs You!

​

WHAT IS POST PROM?

 

Every May, LTHS Parent Teacher Council (PTC) organizes a safe Post Prom event for almost 1,000 teenagers. The event kicks off immediately after the prom itself when the students are escorted aboard a cruise ship at Navy Pier. Students enjoy themselves in a safe and secure environment while they enjoy the view if the beautiful Chicago skyline. Every year, PTC holds fundraisers to offset costs and keep Post Prom ticket prices manageable.

 

PTC has sponsored this event for 32 years and are honored to keep this memorable LT tradition alive for LTHS teens. To make this possible, we need parent and community assistance for fundraising and volunteering to make this wonderful event possible. Please consider helping in some way.
