Online Registration for Southeast Texas Homeschool Prom

 April 6, 2019
Clifton Steamboat Museum, Beaumont, TX
7:00 pm - 11:00 pm

Student Information:  A separate registration form must be completed for each student (and guest of student, if applicable.)  If you are paying for a guest of your student, but don't know the guest's name just yet, use GUEST OF for first name and your student's name as last name so I will be able to match payments up and know to hold the spot.  Then when you have the guest's information, make sure to have the homeschooled student's name in the "guest of" field. 

Paypal payments - please send  $25 payments individually.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR STUDENT'S NAME IS IN THE PAYPAL MEMO SECTION.

The Fine Print:

This event is for homeschooled students age 14 as of 8/31/18 through age 19.  All tickets are non-refundable.  You will receive an emailed confirmation of payment and registration, and your student's name will be added to the list of guests.  An adult volunteer at the entrance of the venue will check for your student's name on the guest list and will direct him or her to the dance area.  You will not receive an actual ticket.

Dress Code: 
Ladies:  Special occasion, semi-formal, or formal dress.  Take care to make sure your dress is not too revealing - no plunging necklines, super short skirts, or open midriffs.
Gentlemen:  Tuxedo, suit, or dress slacks and button down shirt.  No jeans. 
You can find additional dress code information on the dress code tab.

If an attendee arrives at the prom in attire that does not meet the guidelines, then he or she will be asked to return to the prom when appropriate changes to attire have been made.  The decision of appropriateness is left to the discretion of the prom committee and chaperones.  No refund of prom fees will be given.

Conduct:  For the enjoyment of all students, no inappropriate language or behavior will be tolerated.  If your student leaves the prom prior to 11:00 pm, he or she will not be allowed back into the prom.  All attendees must stay in the designated prom area.
