For fifth graders like Isabella Carberry, this year's sweetheart dance was the last chance for her to make memories at the dance before moving onto middle school.
Carberry's mother, Traci Carberry, said Isabella didn't want to attend the dance at first, but once she arrived, she was excited to be with her friends.
