The Junior/Senior Prom is the most highly anticipated and well-attended event on
our high school lives, and this year will be no exception.
Mr. Gilore Ofrancia (NHS Guidance Counselor; ICT Coordinator; NHSOC "Inside NHS"
Forum Moderator) wishes to inform everyone that after a two-year hiatus,
Novaliches High School will be hosting once again the Junior Senior Prom this
coming Saturday at 4:30PM onwards.
Indeed, the prom is a time when juniors and seniors dress in formal wear and all
look many years older than they actually are. Still for some of us as parents,
we get a glimpse of what our children have become as they enter adulthood.
Indeed this event is fun-filled and exciting for everyone who attends. And sure
for many alumni, it brings back such wonderful memories.
NHS On-line Community, wishes all our NHS Juniors and Seniors a very memorable
JS Prom!
