Knowledge: Homecoming dances are usually held in Fall. On the other hand, debutant balls are usually held in Spring.

Conversation:
I've always wanted to be a debutante!
I see, I know a debutante comes from an upper-class or aristocratic family. Does that apply to you?
Welp, I don't have an aristocratic or upper-class family, so I guess I'm out of luck! At what age do most debutantes have their big, elaborate balls?
I'm not sure, but becoming a debutante meant that you were old enough for marriage, and one purpose of the coming out was for display her to bachelors.
Oh, I see! It seems like debutantes have a lot of history? Is this an old term?
I don't know how old it is. But I do know that in Australia, debutant balls are often put together by high schools.
Oh really? So it is a common thing to do. Do you know what season they do that?

Response: Sure, the season the debutante balls are held is Spring.
