The Akins 2025 prom took place at the UT Alumni Center on Saturday, April 26. The theme of the prom was Old Hollywood and included details of old Polaroid photos with the seniors face on it, clapboards, fluffy feathers, and small golden award pieces.
When students entered into the prom, they walked a red carpet where their photo was taken with high flash to create a “Paparazzi” feel for the guests as they entered. There was then a room with tables and a wooden dance floor for stu- dents to dance and enjoy time with their friends.
Toward the end of the night, prom king and queen were announced. The women’s court nominees included Natalie Garcia, Marissa Ruiz, Ava Linnell, and Angela Vasquez. The mens court included Izaiah Rodriguez, Mathew Burke, and James Perez. The two winners were Ava Linnell and James Perez. Overall, the prom was a huge hit with the seniors, and hopefully memorable moment for the outgoing class of 2025.
