There was a meeting held for Seniors yesterday during AA. We discussed graduation requirements in regards to 2nd semester grades, cap decorating, upcoming Senior events, and senior awards forms.
There is a permission form that needs to be filled out in order to attend the Kennywood field trip. They are due to Mrs. Shaffer in the main office next Wednesday, May 3rd.
Each senior is given the opportunity to fill out a scholarship/award form and return it to Mrs. Himes by Monday. This form is for anyone who is receiving awards or scholarships who would like us to contact a representative from the institution or organization to award them. This is not a guarantee that a representative will be able to attend, but rather we'd like to attempt to get someone to award the seniors for their achievements.
