Canton High School, town department collaborate on senior citizen prom.

No the senior class did not get a second full-fledged gala this year but Thursday afternoon Canton High School and the town's Senior and Social Services Department hosted a special event for senior citizens.

The annual Senior Citizen Prom is a collaboration between the town and Canton High School's music department, National Honor Society and Canton Adolescents Taking Action (CATA). 

The event featured music by Canton High School jazz groups, refreshments and festive decorations and offered students and seniors a chance to interact.
