A second school district in North Central Arkansas this week has announced the cancellation of its prom event. In a Facebook post Thursday morning, the Viola School District administration said it will not be able to host a prom this summer and there are no plans to reschedule the event. On Tuesday, Mountain Home School officials said prom originally rescheduled for July 10 had been canceled and would not be rescheduled, citing not being able to meet social distancing guidelines under the coronavirus pandemic.

Viola School District officials say graduation is still tentatively scheduled for July 11. More information about location, restrictions, limitations to the number of guests and other details will be announced later. Those details will be determined when Arkansas Department of Health guidelines for July are clearer.
