Tonawanda High School’s Student Council is proud to once again host the annual Senior Citizens Prom, a beloved tradition that brings joy, connection and celebration to senior citizens from across our community.

  • A full dinner (salad, BBQ chicken sandwiches, macaroni salad, coleslaw)

  • Appetizers (cheese, meats, fruit, crackers)

  • Desserts & beverages

  • A lively night of dancing

  • A fun and much‑anticipated basket raffle (cash needed for the raffle)
