Senior Prom
Each year, the school holds a lavish senior prom, and months are spent preparing for the event by students, faculty and other volunteers to transform the high school into a night to remember. Students arrive to bleachers full of local families who gather to watch the parade of inventive vehicles and their dressed-up occupants. Ambulances, hearses, trolleys, classic cars, parade-like floats, Zamboni Machines, and shopping carts are employed by students who want to arrive at the prom in style. In 2004, the event was awarded "Best Prom" by Reader's Digest as part their "America's 100 Best" feature. In 1991, to the horror of the Lower Makefield parents, 2 Live Crew performed in the school's gymnasium where they played hits "Me So Horny" and "Dick Almighty". 2004, singer-songwriter John Mayer performed for a crowd of nearly a thousand students. In 2007 and 2012, former student and hip-hop artist, Asher Roth performed. In 2008, singer-songwriter Rick Seibold performed. On May 16, 2009, pop rock musician Ryan Cabrera performed.

Famous quotes containing the word senior:
“I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
