The Cherokee Sheriff’s Office is teaming up with Cherokee County Schools and students for this year’s prom season.

Students will be offered a “Prom Promise”, which is a document they sign promising not to drink on prom night. The document is signed by the student, a parent and the principal of the school. The Prom Promise document will be distributed at schools and can be downloaded from the Cherokee Sheriff’s Office website at http://www.cherokeega-sheriff.org.
