Tickets can now be purchased for $65 in the CHS cafeteria during breakfast hours or in room C223 during school hours. Students are asked to not stop by to purchase prom tickets in the middle of a block period. Cash or checks, made payable to the Class of 2024, are accepted. Those with obligations cannot purchase a prom ticket until the obligation is paid in full in the main office.

Any student bringing an outside guest who is younger than 21 must stop by room C223 for a form that needs to be filled out by the guest prior to tickets being purchased.

Prom ticket sales will end April 14.

Registration for Camp LCTI is now open! Lehigh Career & Technical Institute hosts Camp LCTI each summer to provide a fun, educational opportunity for kids and to spread the word about career and technical education in the Lehigh Valley. This year, LCTI is offering a four-day camp session for $250, but Catasauqua Area School District Rough Riders are getting 60% off Camp LCTI this summer - a $150 savings!

At $100 per session, the price CASD students pay, it’s an awesome bargain.

Campers registered by April 30 also receive a free camp LCTI T-shirt, an additional savings of $15. The discount is automatically applied at checkout during online registration.

The session is scheduled for 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m. June 20-23. Campers choose four classes per session. Campers will have tons of fun with science, technology, engineering, arts and math, as well as career exploration. New this summer are camp classes featuring poetry and an escape room challenge. Also being offered are classes where campers can learn how to make a Mason jar light fixture, drive a police car simulator and develop coding skills.
