Dear High School Seniors,

Congratulations on your Senior Prom! We were pleased to celebrate this event with you and we are glad that everyone had a great time. As you know, Katie Klercker was at the prom taking professional photographs to help commemorate this event. You will be receiving an email message to your school email account inviting you to the Senior Prom 2022 Google Drive, where you will find approximately 560 photos from prom.

Preliminary plans have been developed to continue celebrating your success. Please note the following:

Senior Scholarship & Awards Ceremony
Our current plan is to hold an in-person Senior Scholarship and Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, June 8^th at 7:00 P.M. in the auditorium. Each year our community awards graduating seniors with many scholarships and awards. Many of the scholarships applications can be found through your Naviance account. Many of the scholarships are still available, but the deadline is quickly approaching. In addition, please make sure to complete the Senior Scholarship Surveys in Naviance as soon as possible. Students receiving awards will receive an invitation to this ceremony.

Graduation
The District has been receiving all of the caps and gowns that were ordered. Everything will be handed out to students at the graduation rehearsal on June 24 at 9 A.M. in the high school gym.

Plans are be made for this year’s ceremony, which will be on Friday, June 24^th at 6 P.M. on the stadium field. Our intention is to hold the event outside and in-person with no limitations on the number of attendees. Should there be inclement weather, the event will be moved indoors to the high school gym. A certain number of priority seating tickets will be provided to each graduate. After the priority seating timeframe, all additional guests will be able to enter and there will be no limit on the number of attendees.

Additional information will be provided to our Class of 2022 as we approach graduation day.

Sincerely,

Lance Edelman
High School Principal
