Please see the important message from Mr. Keller.
Parents/Guardians/Students,
We are quickly approaching the end of the school year, which means we are entering Graduation season! I am proud of every one of our Seniors for the work they have completed to get to this point. I am attaching an updated schedule of Senior events as a reminder of the important dates as they approach. We have one major date change: the Baccalaureate and Senior Scholarship Awards Night has been moved to Wednesday, May 13th. The Baccalaureate will start at 5pm, and the Scholarship Awards will start at 6pm. This move has been made so that there are no conflicts with postseason athletic schedules and other events that are happening at the school. I apologize for any inconvenience, but this allows all of the students to be able to participate and is our best option.
If you are interested in seeing the promenade on Tuesday, 5/26, we ask that you check into the High School Office via Door 5. We will allow parents and guardians to stand and take pictures outside the office as the Seniors finish their walk.
If you have any questions, please reach out to me. Thanks, and I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at all of the events, and especially at Graduation on Sunday, May 31st, at 1pm!
