The idea of a prom “after party” came about 17 years ago in response to a growing concern over what options were available to our kids after prom. The safety and well-being of our high school students is our first priority. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, on a typical prom weekend: 48 American teenagers will be killed in vehicle crashes; 5,202 American teenagers will be injured; 40% of the deaths will be alcohol-related. The After Party has been helping to keep DHS students safe on prom night. How do I stay informed about After Party? Parents with seniors should follow this page and be on the lookout for communication from DHS and the After Party committee. How does the After Party Happen? As a result of the generosity of local businesses, civic organizations, the DHS staff, members of the Deerfield community, and most of all PARENTS, we are able to fund this party so that it is FREE for the kids!
