Why do you care?? Is your child not invited? I just don’t get it.
Are you familiar with the lengths schools go to in order to reduce the number of teens in the er getting their stomach pumped or dead in a drink driving accidents on prom night? Can you see why another prom with anonymous hosts snd zero safeguards might not be a good idea?

Can't you contact the organizers?
There are no stated organizers-there is an invitation circulating for a party at a venue and the kids “know” through the grapevine whose parents are paying but that’s it.
Why do you care? How does this affect you or your child? Is your child invited or not invited? If invited what is the issue you don’t want them to attend? Or is it that they are not invited?
Which school? Prom is not until May or June for most schools.

That seems like a lot of liability for the venue and hosts

What are you talking about? No one thinks it’s a barn dance-I think it’s some gauche parent idiocy.

What is this venue? Call them and ask who the party hosts are. Also, tell your child NO without knowing all these details.
You are so clueless.
NP with a kid in MS and curious about some the HS drama we’ll face in a few years. Can you explain why “clueless”? It seemed like a reasonable suggestion to me.

So, just another party? Yes, OP, there are lots of parties at around that time. Why does this bother you?
