The Central VA Homeschool Prom 2024 is Sold Out!

​Who We Are

Offering area homeschoolers of Lynchburg City, Campbell, Amherst, Appomattox, and Bedford the experience of a high school prom! We believe that proms are a rite of passage and all students should have the opportunity to attend one.  Some rules and guidelines have changed. They are outlined below - please make sure you read carefully!

Prom Venue: Oakwood Country Club

                       Ticket Purchasing Rules:
             2024 POLICY FOR GUEST TICKETS: 
  • All guest tickets must list an eligible homeschool student as the person a guest is attending with.  Guest tickets being purchased by anyone other than the person they are a guest must be verified and may be voided if the homeschool student listed does not accept that individual as their guest.
  • Eligible homeschool students must be 15 years old on or before 04/13/2023 (the date of prom this year) and live in Lynchburg or the counties of Campbell, Amherst, Appomattox, and Bedford.  (Address and birthday on the ID must match the address and birthday given when buying a ticket)
  • The Prom Committee reserves the right to request proof of homeschooling status. 
  • All guests must be 15 years old on or before 04/13/2024.  No guests over the age of 20.
  • Please note that the dress code has been updated from previous years.. 
  • Please note the time is 7:00-10:00 pm.
  • All students must bring a PHOTO ID. Specifics are outlined below.
  • All attending (homeschool students and guests) must have an ID that contains ALL of this information: photo, name, address, & birth date.  If an ID is not provided at check in, there will be NO admittance.  No exceptions!
  • ​Birth certificates and social security cards are NOT acceptable forms of identification.
Below are some resources where you can
obtain an ID. 

BE AWARE THAT IT WILL TAKE 2-3 WEEKS TO RECEIVE AN ID FROM ANY OF THESE RESOURCES.

Just to be clear:   Homeschool students must live in the areas outlined above, meet the age requirement, and bring a photo ID with address and birth date.  Guests do not need to live in the area, but do need to meet the age requirement and do need to bring a photo ID with birth date.  Guest tickets must be purchased by an eligible homeschool student or have an eligible homeschool students name listed on the ticket. No one needs to bring a paper ticket.  We will have a list of names at check in.
The reason for these changes is because the attendance has grown significantly, and we can only comfortably accommodate a certain number of people and want to make sure that the older high school students from our area are able to attend.

Parent Participation:  While we understand the closeness of our families, this event has been designed as a special event for high school students. Parents are welcome to come in for a few minutes to get a feel of the event, check out the decorations, chat with the chaperones, and then leave. This is not an event for the whole family. Rest assured our chaperones will be monitoring activities throughout the evening.
