Each year, Watertown Middle School hosts 4-6 dances in the cafeteria. The dances are from 7 p.m.-10 p.m. The boring old cafeteria transforms into something that looks, feels, and sounds different.

The dances are usually every other month and most of the dances have a theme depending on the holiday or season and the cafeteria is decorated by volunteers. The whole school is welcome to come.

The next WMS dance will be on Friday, Oct. 19.

At the dance, there is a free movie available in the auditorium to watch, there is free gym time, and people can buy food and drinks (pizza, soda, water, and hot cocoa, depending on the weather).

The tickets are available at all of the lunches the week before the dance. The tickets for the dance are $6 per person. The tickets are not available at the door the night of the dance.
