It's all surprising to me. I did not know there were formals at that age. I thought they were a grad thing.

It depends on the region, in my area of the US we had a Ring Ceremony formal in 10th grade for people getting their rings. Then Junior Prom in 11, and Senior Prom in 12th.

I sorta remember a "homecoming" formal also but can't remember where that fit in.

I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound stupid, but what is the ring for? Like a purity ring? Class ring?

[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Class Ring sorry should have been more clear.

Only extremist christian private schools do things like "purity" rings.

Homecoming is in the fall during football season.
