A Golden Gala for Prom 2026

Chillicothe High School held its Golden Gala-themed prom on Saturday, April 25, 2026. Following the Grand March at Ohio University–Chillicothe’s Shoemaker Center, Principal Matt Ballentine announced Nathaniel Scissum as prom king and Alex Erslan as prom queen.

The event featured a catered dinner from Olive Garden, with dancing continuing until 11 p.m.

Students later traveled to Scene75 in Columbus for after-prom activities. Money for the after-prom was raised by a group of parents through A Safe After Prom committee.
