STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Lavelle Preparatory, Nicotra Early College, and New Ventures charter schools combined forces to hold their prom Friday night at Snug Harbor Cultural Center in Livingston.

Grand entrance

Even though it was rainy and cold, the prom attendees arrived at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center full of energy and excitement. The seniors rolled up in limousines and party buses, looking fabulous in their beautiful gowns and sharp suits, all set to have an amazing night celebrating together.

Best dressed

Endeliza Illas looked stunning on her special night, dressed in a pink lace, full-length, off-the-shoulder evening gown that shimmered subtly with sequins. Jason Kotsonis complemented her perfectly, looking dapper in a tailored white tuxedo paired with a formal white dress shirt, a pink vest, and a matching pink bow tie.
