Here's additional school updates from the Ada school website.
Prom
The date of prom has been moved. Clearly, when this “Stay at Home” order is lifted, our amazing hosts at Crimson Lane will be booked every weekend for a long time. So, we were able to get a week night date, after school will be done for the summer.
The new date is Monday, June 15. We wanted everyone to have that date. We do have some other options should this not work for some reason.
Here's a screen shot from Ada Bulldogs Facebook. It appears tha the Ada High School Film Club is alive and well. They used Netflix Party to pull this off.
