junior prom

Underclassmen's formal ball

A junior prom is a formal dance held for high school juniors, typically in the spring of their third year.

American high schools often hold both a junior prom and a senior prom, though some combine them into a single event open to upperclassmen: Are you going to junior prom?

The word prom is short for promenade.
