On April 21, the day upon which Rome was founded in 753 BC, Princeton Latin Academy celebrates its anniversary. The day is marked by a formal dinner and dance for the 6th, 7th and 8th-graders. Teachers and students dress up in their finest -- boys usually in tuxedos and girls in evening dresses. The formal consists of a delicious sit-down dinner followed by a night of dancing.
