Thanks for having us, it was a blast!

The North Central Knights are making a powerful commitment this prom season! 💙🖤

Today, our students proudly signed the **Prom Promise** in partnership with the Kershaw County Alpha Center—pledging to make safe, responsible choices on one of the most memorable nights of the year.

By signing, they promise:
✨ Not to drink or use drugs
✨ Not to drive under the influence
✨ Not to ride with anyone who has been drinking or using drugs

We are so proud of these students for choosing safety, accountability, and respect—for themselves and for each other. This is what it means to be a Knight! ⚔️

Let’s cheer them on as they lead by example and help make this prom season safe and unforgettable for all. 💫

Deaths caused by impaired driving are preventable, do your part by making exit plans when you go out and speaking to loved ones about impaired driving. Use rideshare applications and those around you to make sure you have a safe and sober ride home.
