Senior Calendar: We have created a calendar and checklist for seniors and their parents to ensure everyone is up to date on important events. Please bookmark this page and check back often as information is continuously updated.
REMINDER:
Remember to go to the Webstore to contribute to our Class Activity Fund! This is extremely important because it funds all senior activities throughout the year. The Webstore also is the location to purchase senior specific items like grad night tickets, graduation garlands, memory frames, yearbooks, and more. If you registered within the first 3 days, you may not have seen these items in the webstore. The panoramic picture and yearbook are also on there but require you to go to a different website to order.
