Following prom, seniors enjoy a week of dress up days from April 15-19. With dress-up days like “College Shirt Day” and “When You Were Younger” day, seniors are able to enjoy and reminisce on their favorite memories at Heritage while preparing for graduation in May. The week started with Prom Saturday and ended with Grad Bash, hosted by Universal.

The second dress-up day was themed to “What You Want to Be When You Grow Up,” and asked students to dress-up as their past childhood dream profession. Common dream jobs included surgeons, veterinarians, princesses, artists and presidents. Some more niche outfits were themed to be archeologists, a traveling photographer and a dolphin defense attorney/ trainer.

The third dress-up day was “Dress as a Famous Character” day. Some of the TV characters found around campus included Lilo and Stitch, Barbie, Eda from the Incredibles and Patrick the Star from Sponge Bob. “I loved being able to be creative with my style and really go over-the-top for my last dress-up week,” senior Elizabeth Ward said. “Having an excuse to dress-up as Barbie was definitely the peak of my week.” (Photos/Emma Colarte Delgado, Jaydn Jacabson, Anya Pinto and Lauren Wong)
