On Saturday, December 8 Alverno High School hosted its annual Winter Formal, “An Evening in Old Hollywood,” in the Villa del Sol d’Oro.
Winter Formal, a Christmas tradition, is the only all school formal dance at Alverno. Freshmen through seniors are invited to bring a date and enjoy the dance put on by Alverno’s Student Union (ASU). This year’s chosen theme was “An Evening in Old Hollywood” and the Villa’s 1920s décor served as a perfect complement to the theme.
After enjoying dancing, a mashed potato bar, and photos the evening ended with the announcement of Alverno’s Winter Formal Court. Each class was represented by two finalists who had been chosen through a larger pool of applicants. In order to be considered for Winter Formal, students were required to fill out an anonymous application and have an interview with ASU. The two finalists were announced during a school-wide assembly on Friday, December 7 and each class voted on their princess at Winter Formal on Saturday, December 8.
