Instead of spending a night in Indiana, spend a Night In Paris! Come join us for our Night In Paris themed dance on February 9th from 2:30-5! Where you can rock your best or just come as is! This dance offers some fun in the gym with a DJ to make the moment memorable, some concessions in the cafeteria so you don’t get hungry, and even a backdrop for you to take tons of photos with friends! You can pre-order your tickets and concession tickets online or you can even order at the entrance! We hope to see you and your friends there!
Pre-registration is open now – 2/6 and tickets will be sent home with the EJHS student designated at check-out in advance to allow for quicker dance entry (a perk of pre-registering)! Entry will be available at the door for $7. All proceeds go directly back to support EJHS students and teachers through your EJHS PTO; this event is open to EJHS students only!
Here is the link to pre-order your tickets:
