The Sophomore Semi for the Class of 2024 was held on Thursday, April 14, at Twelve Acres in Smithfield.

The event was held outside, on the pavilion, where students engaged in various yard games.

Once the sun set, the party was taken inside, where the students enjoyed a barbecue-style buffet. The DJ for the night was Joey Acciardo, a senior at the high school.

The Semi Court consisted of queen nominations Aubree Allen, Jiana Mitsoulis, Alessandra Pesare and Ash Torres. The King Semi court consisted of Armani Arias, Kevin Biscelli, Jacob Carr and James Pastore.

Much to the crowd's delight, Steven Finegan and Hannah Lavergne were announced as the King and Queen, respectively.
