On Saturday May 7, 2016 Linganore High School held their Junior/Senior Prom at the FSK Holiday Inn. The theme was A Night At Gatsby’s.  The King and Queen were voted on by prom attendees.

The 2016 prom King is Kylan Connolly. He plans to attend  Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York and will major in architecture. Connolly excels in acting and drama, and he was cast in lead roles in the plays the past two years.

And the 2016 Queen is Maria Pellicier. She plans to attend  New York University this fall and will major in social work with a minor in political science. Pellicier has been in the color guard at Linganore for four years. She traveled with the band this year to Disney World and contributed to the band, winning the “Golden Mickey” award. In the fall, she was named Homecoming Queen.

“It’s been such an honor to represent Lingnore,” said Pellicier, who also won 2016 Homecoming Queen. “I thought a couple would win.”

Pellicier’s boyfriend, Matt Watson, said, “It was awesome. I was super happy for Maria. She deserves it.”

Congratulations to these two outstanding students on winning 2016 Prom King and Queen, and good luck at college!
