"Prom King" is a title awarded to a male student during a high school prom, a formal dance event typically held at the end of the school year. The title is often given based on a vote by the student body, recognizing the student who is seen as popular, charismatic, or well-liked among peers. The Prom King is usually crowned alongside a Prom Queen, who is the female counterpart. This tradition is part of a larger celebration that includes dancing, socializing, and often a themed event, making it a memorable occasion for students and their families.
