DECA Club Visits Hershey Park
The DECA Club of Coatesville Area Senior High School attended a field trip to Hershey Park. The highlights of the trip included a tour of Chocolate World before attending a "lunch and learn" with the Marketing Team of the Hershey Corporation. Afterward, the club members took a ride on a roller coaster in the rain, and of course, sampled chocolate!

Senior Prom 2024!!
May 31 is the Coatesville Area Senior High School Prom, "Dripping In Diamonds"! The Senior Class Cabinet has been preparing all year for this event.
Our school is one of the only schools on the East Coast that still have our prom at the school. The dance is preceded by a parade of the "vehicles" the students choose to arrive in. Some are floats, horses, unique limousines...the only way they cannot arrive is by air or motorcyle. It is a 55 year old tradition here at C.A.S.H. and we look forward to it every year!
Prom Tickets sales are NOW OPEN!! The ticket sale process began last week and any student who completes the process early will receive a special gift (must be done by tomorrow, Tues. May 7th fro the free gift). Posters and information how to purchase tickets are posted throughout the building, on the Announcement Hub on CANVAS, and posted on the senior class social media pages, as well as on our school website and on the next few Monday Messages.
Prom Guests Procedures
Students who bring guests will be required to fill out the permission form (link below) before receiving approval to bring a guest. Students are allowed to bring only one guest. Students will also need the photo identification of the guest at the time of ticket purchase and for admission into the dance. If approved by administration, this contract will be forwarded to the advisor in charge of the dance. Additionally, the guest must be accompanied to the dance by their CASH host. Guest’s behavior will be the responsibility of the host student. Prom guests must be 20 years or younger. Guests under 18 must be in high school and have a valid school identification. ID is required for all guests. NO EXCEPTIONS as this is for the safety and security of the event.
