Tickets for the dance are $90 per person plus an online booking fee. Tickets must be purchased online through the school’s BookTix system. The system will open to students on Monday, May 17th and will remain open until Sunday, May 30th.
Senior Prom Ticket Purchase

Please be advised that anyone who purchases a ticket online for the Senior Prom will be subject to the North Hunterdon random breathalyzer policy. Students that attend the prom may be administered a breathalyzer upon entry. This policy is in place to deter the use of alcohol or drugs by the student population. Attendees are advised to not eat, drink, chew gum or use mouthwash for 15 minutes before entry, as this could cause a false positive. In the event of a true positive test, students will be restricted from co-curricular activities for a period of no less than two weeks and may lose parking privileges.
In order to be eligible to buy a ticket for the Senior Prom, your student must be in good academic standing and free from all outstanding obligations. Obligation payments should be submitted to Leah Petro in room 239 during normal school hours. You can check if there are any student obligations through the parent ASPEN portal.
Any student who earned less than 30 credits during the previous school year (excluding current freshmen) is not eligible to attend this dance based on the North Hunterdon-Voorhees Board of Education Policy 2430.
Out-Of-School Guests
North Hunterdon students inviting out-of-school guests must have the guest approved by Mr. Petraglia, before purchasing the tickets. The OUT-OF-SCHOOL GUEST form is attached below. The out-of-school guest should purchase his/her ticket online, complete all the necessary information components, and print out the designated Out-of-School GUEST Ticket. Under the Student ID of the guest ticket, enter the NHHS Student ID as “Guest”. We recommend submitting the forms to Mr. Petraglia in Room 239 as soon as your child decides to attend the dance, but no later than Friday, May 28th.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all out of school guests will be required to fill out a COVID-19 screener. This screener will be given on-site for out-of-school guests.
Students and out-of-school guests will be required to present their printed ticket and photo ID at the door for entry into the dance. Acceptable forms of photo ID include but are not limited to: NHHS ID card, identification card from another school, a driver’s license, passport, etc.

- Guests who are age 21 and over or are currently in middle school will not be permitted to attend.
- Administration reserves the right to deny guest requests for any reason.
- Students are expected to follow all school policies and procedures including dress code.
The doors will open at 4:00pm for students to begin checking in. No student will be admitted to the dance after 5:00pm. This is a formal event. No jeans or sneakers will be permitted. Gentlemen should wear formal attire (including but not limited to tuxedos) and ladies should wear formal attire (including but not limited to long/short dresses). If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Melissa Garcia (mgarcia@nhvweb.net) or Mr. Michael Owdij (mowdij@nhvweb.net).
We expect our North Hunterdon High School students to conduct themselves at school-related functions in a manner that would make their parents and our community proud. We hope, as their parents do, that our students will present themselves always as persons of integrity. However, sometimes students ignore the law and school regulations by engaging in activities that are questionable or illegal. We hope to ensure that students understand the repercussions of their actions should they choose to use prohibited substances at a school-sponsored event.

Senior Prom is one of the highlights of the student experience at North Hunterdon High School. I hope that many of our students will take advantage of this opportunity and have a safe, fun and memorable night with their peers.
Sincerely,
Dr. Gregory Cottrell
Principal
