Eudora High School students Jason Hamlin, left, and Caleb Pettengill will be attending their prom as pirates.

According to sources at Eudora High School, 2005 grad Jason Hamlin (left, dressed as a pirate for prom back in his high school days in 2005) will be on American Idol this Sunday on FOX.

Hamlin auditioned for the annual singing competition in San Diego and apparently gets air time in a special episode, to appear after the NFC Championship game. The episode will start around 9 p.m., though the timing depends on the game.

The show, which is its 12th season, debuted last Wednesday and showed its second episode on Thursday. The current episodes are showcasing the audition process, in which amateur singers try to make it to Hollywood.

Kansas City native David Cook won the show’s seventh season in 2008. Check back at Lawrence.com next week to see if Hamlin made it to Hollywood.
