People who put dresses on consignment set the sale price and receive 65 percent of the money, with the remaining 35 percent used to reduce prom ticket prices.
Anna said the class officers began planning the consignment sale after the Christmas break, but began to “get a little nervous” as the Feb. 24 sale approached “because we only had about 30 dresses to sell.”

But that changed in the days following the annual Prom Fashion Show on Feb. 19.
“During the fashion show we announced that we still needed dresses for the sale,” Anna said. “And people really came through. It was like an explosion of dresses — we went from 30 to more than 110.”
A number of the dresses available for sale were donated rather than put on consignment, she said, adding that they were sold for $50 and the entire amount went to reduce the cost of prom tickets.
While putting the consignment sale together “has been a lot of fun” for the girls involved, it has also been a learning opportunity, Brentzel-Martina said.
“We try to develop leadership skills and independent team building,” she said. “So from an educational standpoint, the kids involved in this have been learning how to work through all the details and decisions that have to be made to put this together.”
