Project PROMise is a valuable initiative aimed at helping students from Highline Public Schools find their ideal prom attire free of charge. Happening on April 27 and 28, this event invites students to explore a stunning collection of dresses, shoes, and accessories tailored to their needs. Interested participants can easily sign up online for a convenient time slot, with email confirmations provided for added assurance.

To further enhance this service, volunteer seamstresses will be onsite to address any quick repairs, ensuring that every outfit is ready for the big day.

This inclusive program accommodates all students enrolled in Highline Public Schools, including those in Running Start and PSSC. It's an excellent opportunity for students to access high-quality prom attire without the financial burden.
