[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a scandal at the dance pre covid - alleged sexual harassment at the dance.[/quote] That was a different dance at Whitman, which was in the winter. Elimination of the HoCo dance at Whitman was as described by a poster above. I also think that the PTA started organizing the carnival on the baseball field even pre-covid to try to create an alternative to all of the alcohol parties (like a “post-prom” idea). To be clear, at Whitman there were always a huge number of kids who skipped the dance anyway - they did HoCo exactly like OP’s daughter did. A friend of mine graduated Whitman in the late 1980s and she said many kids dressed up but skipped the dance then, too! The new carnival-in-lieu-of-dance format was supposed to cut back on some of that so it is sad it sounds even worse than when my kids were there. [/quote]
