FDMS held the Back to Back School Dance inviting everyone to come and have fun. For a fair price of $7, guests were treated to different activities and events that made the entry fee worth it. Guests were able to enjoy themselves, drinking at the punch bowl and treating themselves to a variety of snacks. Other than dancing, guests of the dance were also able to have fun with their friends and dates in a fun game of laser tag. Not one, but two bouncy houses were present to allow the guests jump around after dancing. Then they could create memories they could all remember at the photo booth. Finally, guests were treated to live performances from Jonah Guerrero and Skip.

Just to name some of the few colleges that were present that day: University of Guam, University of Notre Dame, Tufts University, Temple University, and many others.
