Dear Voorhees Classes of 2026, 2027 and their Parents/Guardians,
The VHS Class of 2027 will be hosting this year’s Junior/Senior Prom at ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks in Bethlehem, Pa. on Friday, June 5, 2026.
The prom will include dinner and dancing from 6pm to 10pm. The Junior class has been actively fundraising to keep this year’s prom ticket costs at $130 each. All VHS Juniors and Seniors that are in good academic/disciplinary standing and are free from any monetary obligations are eligible to purchase ticket(s). Freshmen, Sophomores, and Non-VHS Students are able to attend (with proper documentation) so long as they are the guest of a VHS Junior or Senior. This year, tickets will be purchased online at https://omella.com/8hzrv. Tickets can be purchased through the use of a credit/debit card (for a small fee) or through the use of a bank account (no fee). Ticket sales will close on Monday, May 4. Tickets are non-refundable. We wanted to get this information out early so that you may plan accordingly with all the events that occur near the end of the school year. Reminders will be sent throughout the next 3 months.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Those eligible to purchase tickets:
1) Voorhees Juniors & Seniors in good academic/disciplinary standing and without monetary obligations (library, TRC, etc)
2) Check Aspen (the Transactions tab) to see if you have any outstanding obligations – bring payments to the necessary location
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
To purchase tickets:
1)Go to https://omella.com/8hzrv
2) Enter a valid student email address – all emails are validated to ensure only eligible students may purchase ticket(s) or have a guest ticket purchased for them. If you are unable to proceed past your email address it is because you owe some sort of financial obligation. Please contact Marc McGeehan @ mmcgeehan@nhvweb.net with any questions.
3) Complete the required information.
4) If you would like to purchase a guest ticket for another VHS student, they will need to complete the VHS Prom 2026 Permission & Breathalyzer Form and you’ll need to upload it on the Omella page in the indicated location
5) If you would like to purchase a guest ticket for a Non-VHS student, a VHS Prom 2026 Non-VHS Guest Form will need to be signed by a VHS Administrator in order to purchase both the VHS Student and the Outside Guest’s tickets. All guests must be under the age of 21. Middle school students are not allowed. Once signed, the VHS student as well as their parents/guardians will be emailed a Guest Code. That code needs to be entered on the Omella page and the completed form must also be uploaded in the indicated location.
6) Forms Do NOT need to be uploaded if you’re purchasing a single ticket (the digital signatures take their place).
7) Tickets that are purchased with a credit/debit card will be subject to a processing fee.
8) A receipt will be sent to both the student email as well as the parent/guardian email. The receipt will have a QR code that can be scanned to check in upon arrival at the prom.
Receipts can be printed or can be shown on a cell phone to check in.

- All prom-goers should have arrangements to leave prom by 10:00pm.
- Prom tickets are non-refundable. We pay for the venue in advance and therefore those who purchase a ticket cannot receive a refund if they choose not to attend.

8) Parents or guardians will be notified immediately by telephone.
9)Depending on the severity of the infraction, local law enforcement officials may be contacted.
