Class Day has been scheduled for May 17, the day of graduation, so that parents will have only one day to arrange for attendance to all senior functions. Seniors must be present for Class Day in order to participate in the graduation ceremonies on the same evening. Seniors should meet in the gymnasium at 8:00 am on Thursday, May 17. The gymnasium will be set up, and graduation practice will begin promptly at 8:00am (don’t be late)! Awards program begins at 9:00 am.
