The much-anticipated results the Homecoming King and Queen vote were finally announced at the Coronation Assembly today. The winners were seniors Afolabi George and Maria Dolomas.
“I’m thankful,” George said. “[Winning] was like a fantasy to me.”
Dolomas said as she walked down to the stage as a nominee, she was nervous, but also excited.
“I wasn’t really thinking about who would win,” she said. “But I was happy when they said my name. It’s something I’m going to remember, being Homecoming Queen my senior year.”
According to senior nominee Emily Boldt, “everybody in the school has their place, and [Coronation] was really fun because it was really anybody’s game. We all have our groups of supporters.”
Although Boldt did not win, she loved the being a part of Coronation.
“I’m not going to lie; I love attention,” she said. “I was nervous, but I liked the attention. Everybody saw me; I was all dressed up. My efforts didn’t go to waste.”
With the week coming to an end, the senior nominees and winners enjoy their last moments of Homecoming.
“I will miss getting together with all these people that I’ve known since kindergarten or even since freshman year,” Boldt said. “It’s been so much fun.

Congratulations to the winners Afolabi George and Maria Dolomas. Now, if you compare what movies do to the homecoming king and queen to what we do now. There is a huge difference, in movies the homecoming king is always the QB of the football team, and the homecoming queen is the head cheerleader. But at prospect high school we are not only voting for how the person looks, but also how they act, education, and participation in school activities. I believe what we do is way better then the movies.
