Parents will wish for the young men to have a suit on for pictures.

If you DS wears a sports coat, choose navy, and dark pants. He shouldn't wear khaki pants - it's an evening activity, not a golf outing.


Depends on the school. At our private all the boys wear khakis and blue blazers. A suit would be way overdressed. Girls wear short dresses. Just check with some friends who have kids that have gone. They will tell you what is the norm.

It can really vary depending on the school.

I was anticipating the navy blue blazer/khakis, but now I'm wondering if my DS will be the only one not wearing a suit. Any thoughts? TIA!
