9th grade Prom...Questions!?

Question

Hey, i'm 15 and I will be going to Prom this year. I go to a Jr. High....grades 7-9. So it will just be 9th graders. Do you think I should wear a dress? And do you only go if you have a date or can you just have fun with friends?

Answer 1

For 9th graders those dances are called Homecoming, not prom. Prom is for juniors and seniors. Anyway, yes wear a dress because homecoming is formal. No, you dont need a date you can go with a whole group of friends and stuff like that, thats what i did for my homecomings when i didnt get asked. Good luck! ♥

Answer 2

well if you have to wear a dress,then yea I would wear a dress.

And no you dont have to have a date. Tons of people dont have dates,just enjoy yourself with your friends ,and most of all have fun.

:D

Answer 3

since it's a prom wear a dress but don't over do it also you don't need a date to go to the prom hang with friends dance with them boys or girls maybe not a slow dance with a girl but whatever just have fun.

hope this helps.

Answer 4

Wear what you want girl!

Use good judgment though.  Yes you are growing up but make sure your parents approve AND your attire is within your school guidlines.

All 3 of my daughters went to their first prom with their friends and they all had a total blast!

Have fun!

Answer 5

its wierd that 9 th grade is in jr high where ever your from, thats a freshman in highschool where i'm from!

Dress; OF COURSE.

Date; you'll probly have a better time with your friends, plus think about it, when you look back on that night, would you rather be like wow i had a lot of fun with my friends, or would you rather be like;; ew i hate him.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Well if you want to have fun at ur last year at jr. high then you should give it a try or see if any other people are going without their dates.. and wear a dress if ur going wit a date or people might think your with a date .. but its all up 2 u ..

Answer 8

If it is a prom, I would definitely wear a dress, but since it's only 9th grade it might not have to be as formal as for like a senior prom.  The best advice on picking an outfit I can give is to first ask someone who is on prom committee whether the dance is formal or semi-formal.  Then, within those perimeters, pick something you are comfortable in.

For fun at a prom, dates are definitely not necessary, especially at a lower grade.  Go with a bunch of your friends and you'll have a blast.  Don't just pick a random guy to take you to the prom if you have no emotional attachment because that can always cause extra drama and may make things awkward.  If you already have a boyfriend, it can be fun to go with him too, but always make time to hang out with your friends, because they often last longer than boyfriends.

Answer 9

you can go with a date, Or just friends. whatever floats your boat. for me I prefer going with my friends, Because I think Its awkward to  have a date at dances because I like to actually Dance and most guys dont! But I dress is totally cool, I would go for something not as fancy as like a high school prom dress, But still dressy.  

Answer 10

of course you should wear a dress! and if you don't have a date, just hang with your dance, and who knows? maybe there will be guys who don't have dates either =]
