Attorney Christopher Slusser helped some area seniors pledge to stay safe this prom season when he participated in the Hazleton Area School District’s Prom Promise assembly, which was held at Hazleton Area High School’s Hughie McGeehan Gymnasium.

Seniors from Hazleton Area High School and Hazleton Area Academy of Sciences were on hand for the assembly and pledged not to use alcohol and drugs while attending this year’s prom.

During the program, Attorney Slusser drew several seniors’ names out of a box and rewarded them with various prizes sponsored by the Slusser Law Firm.
