Mission Statement

The philosophy of the Dean’s Office is to cultivate a safe, orderly and effective environment that promotes mutual respect and encourages citizenship.  A culture predicated on mutual respect and citizenship will enhance students’ academic success and prepare them to be responsible, contributing members of society.  It is our goal to facilitate the development, articulation, implementation, and stewardship of a vision of discipline with dignity that is shared and supported by the school community.

School Dances

Each dance that is held at Prospect High School, current students will be required to bring their school ID to be scanned at the door.   If they do not have an current school ID, they will be able to purchase a temporary one for $5.00.   Detentions MUST be served before the dance.  Students will be refused entry if they still have unserved detentions.  A PHS student may bring a guest to the dance, but must first fill out the District 214 Guest Dance Form (pdf) and turn it in to the Deans office by 2:00pm the Friday before each dance.  The dances are usually $10.00, unless otherwise noted.
