✨ Prom Season is HERE at Marfa ISD! ✨
With all the excitement of promposals, dress shopping, and big night plans… we couldn’t resist taking a trip down memory lane 😄
We dug deep into the archives (don’t worry—permission granted 😉) and found some classic prom photos of our teachers and staff from back in the day!
Study the hair.
Check out the outfits.
Don’t ignore the poses 👀
And tell us…
Can you guess who’s who? 😂👇
