Dear Class of 2012 Parent:
SENIOR YEAR IS HERE! This is a year of events, fun, endings, beginnings and more. We are currently planning the two main events - Baccalaureate and the Senior Celebration. The date for graduation is still being discussed. Once we are positive of the date and time it will be announced.
To date, the 2012 Booster Club has raised approximately $18,000 but we need more. Estimated cost for the senior events is $25K - $30K. So it is imperative that we continue to raise funds throughout the school year for the senior events mentioned. Below are some of the events which we need help with in order to be successful.
* Senior Bricks are a great way to honor your student and will be available to be purchased starting in September 2011. These are placed in the Circle of Honor on the west side of the school after graduation. Bricks are $125 and are available for purchase. Please contact Stephanie Connell at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it for form and payment information.
* Baccalaureate is a non-denominational service to provide an inspirational message to our graduates followed by a reception. Senior Party provides a safe and fun environment the evening following graduation to celebrate graduation. We will need parents to help plan and underwrite all these exciting events. Denise Pierce will be co-chairing this event and would like another parent to co-chair with her. Please contact Denise at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it if you are interesed in being a co-chair or with helping with the event.
We need to think BIG fundraisers. If you have any ideals on how we can raise money you can either submit the plan to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or attend the next booster club meeting.
We know that everyone is busy and may not have time to help with fundraisers and if you would like to have a “no guilt” senior year, just send in your donation at any level to the Class of 2012 senior events!
