LHS students vote seniors for 2019 Prom Court on May 4
Austin Carper and Katie Perez were elected prom king and queen at the LHS prom May 4.
Not one of them expected to win.
“I wasn’t really paying attention. I wasn’t that worried about it at all,” Carper said.
It was a surreal experience for Perez.
“I had to make sure that it was actually my name that was called,” she said.
Both remarked that the nominees were a group of good people.
“All the guys nominated for prom king were good guys,” Carper said. “They were good students and fun people.”
Both the king and queen said they feel thankful to the people who voted for them.
“Thank you. It’s cool, I got a crown,” Carper said.
“Thank you so much. I think it’s just super-awesome that anybody, but especially so many people, thought that I was someone who deserved that,” Perez said. “That’s just such a huge honor to hear from my peers.”
