  4. Guys and Dolls! Welcome to the Rug! Jackson High School is so excited to offer you a great Prom this year at The Rock Ranch in Barnesville, Georgia. Prom comes from the word promenade, the formal introductory parading of guests at a party. It began in the mid- to late 1800s at colleges and universities in the Northeast to promote social etiquette and manners in each year’s graduating class, and over time has become a rite of passage for young people. Long standing traditions include formal attire for both men and women, as well as the expectation to “put on your best behavior and personal presentation!” The faculty here at Jackson High school is proud to offer our students the opportunity to present themselves at their best on this special night! The Greatest Prom on Earth!! Our prom theme is the great Gatsby. Please enjoy our powerpoint presentation that features art, graphics, quotes, and slang of the day, popular in the roaring 20s. It’s Berries!!!!!!!!!!!
