(LAKEWOOD RANCH, FL) - Thank you to everyone who helped make Prom 2026 such a success! Our students truly seemed to enjoy themselves, and that would not have been possible without the support of our Mustang family. I am incredibly grateful to all of you.
A very special thank you to Ali Wilcoxen for working alongside me and with our JAB students to set up and take down the event. Your dedication made a huge difference.
