Dances
During the academic year, De La Salle and Carondelet High Schools host a number of dances for their students, and in some cases, for guests. All events are coordinated through the Student Activities offices of both schools. Typically freshmen and sophomores have their dances on the Carondelet campus and juniors and seniors on the De La Salle campus.
This year, our Welcome Back Dance will take place in August, Homecoming in October. We will also be introducing a new Winter Dance for our underclassmen. And, of course, we will wrap up the school year with a Junior Prom and a Senior Ball. There may also be other opportunities to engage with Carondelet through on and off-campus class mixers.
While all of these events are called dances, they aren't just for students who like to dance. We work hard to make sure that we have other activities available, like video games, cornhole, pop-a-shot, to ensure that fun is had by all.
For our school, Mrs. Jennifer Stein, Director of Student Activities, is the point person for all student activity events. Should you have any questions about any of the school dances, please contact Mrs. Stein.
