Project Grad 2008

May 20, 2008
Cracker-Jax

It is a special time for the students to spend one last evening together as a class.  The cost is $100 and checks may be turned in to the Front Desk.  There are scholarships available as we realize this could be financially unaffordable for many families.  Please remember to turn in your laminated memory lane poster by Tuesday, May 13.  Prize donations are welcome, and underclass parents are needed to work at the event.

If you are able to volunteer or make a donation for the Senior Picnic (below) or Project Graduation we would love to hear from you.  Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions:
