Hi 8th graders and parents! FYI to anyone looking to purchase a formal dress, there have been several dresses posted on local Facebook garage sale sites that are absolutely beautiful and most only worn once! Hope this helps keep costs to families down. ***Formal attire is not required. It is much more important to include as many kids from the class of 2021 as possible then what is worn. This is just a FYI post for those looking to purchase an affordable dress. ball gowns dresses cost below 100
