NKHS Prom 2011

NKHS' seniors celebrated the end of high school in style.

Gowns. Tuxedos. Corsages. Limos.

Oh yes, we're talking about prom. 's class of 2011 celebrated the end of high school in style, overtaking the Newport Marriott in record numbers. According to class advisor Tara Walsh, 500 students attended this year's prom – a nearly unprecedented number.

Of course there was the photo booth and sit-down dinner, but things really picked up when the dancing began. And what song sent these kids to the dance floor? None other than Journey's "Don't Stop Believing."
