Pierce High School held their annual Winter Royalty dance at the school’s auditorium on Saturday, January 14, at the Auditorium. Seniors Dillon Lubischer and Emily Simmons were crowned king and queen.

The senior class had ten candidates nominated for king queen. For the girl candidates, it was Ellexis Dunn, Ellie Moeller, Krystina Schuett, Emily Simmons, and Hailey Race. The candidates for boys were Junior Aguilar, Parker Baumann, Derek Ross, Brady Simmons, and Dillon Lubischer.

Following coronation, the dance began. The DJ for the dance was Music Machine, and the dance started at 8 p.m. and went until 11 p.m.
