Please note that seniors MUST attend all practices in order to participate in Candlelight and Graduation. Keep in mind that while seniors are not in classes this week, that these are still considered "school days" and these practices need to take precedence over jobs or other activities.

***We appreciate extra flexibility with the practice at Merrill. Due to busing, traffic, and any other factors beyond our control, these should be considered approximate times.

Graduation Apparel & Tickets Pick-up Date

On Wednesday, May 29th, from 1-5 PM caps, gowns, tassels, and graduation tickets will be distributed in the FHS gym lobby. The cost of the announcement & apparel package is $25. Tickets to graduation are free and are distributed on an as-needed basis; parents should have a firm number of tickets needed for their invited guests. We expect to be able to provide up to 15 tickets per graduate on this date. For any larger requests we are very confident that they will be fulfilled, however to ensure all families' needs are met we will make extra tickets available once everyone has had the opportunity to pick-up their tickets.

We will also be taking orders for the professionally produced DVD set of both the Candlelight & graduation ceremonies.

We hope we can also answer any questions you might have about upcoming senior graduation events and look forward to seeing you on May 29th.

Graduation Announcements Pick-up

Senior Class Officers and representatives will be distributing Graduation Announcements to parents of seniors during parent/teacher conferences on March 11th and March 13th in the front lobby. Please stop by the table on your way in or out of the building to pick-up these up. There are four announcements per family that are included in the cap/gown/tassel/announcements package for $25; instructions for ordering additional announcements, if desired, are included in the envelope. The cap/gown/tassel and graduation tickets will be available for pickup in late May or early June (precise date TBA), the payment of $25 will be due at that time.

Graduation Planning Meeting

During the Advisory period on Tuesday, January 29th there will be a class meeting in the cafeteria.

Graduation is only about four short months away and now is the time to start making decisions about the end of year events. In the meeting today we will be discussing class song, class gift, and individual roles at graduation events. We are asking all seniors to consider these topics, especially those interested in an individual role at one of the year end events. If you think you might want to serve in an individual role, as a speaker, performer, marshal, conductor, or accompanist, please complete the Senior Survey indicating your interest. (This is not binding and you can change your mind later.)

• For more information on speaking, read the Senior Speeches Guidelines, or take a copy at the meeting.

• For more information on performing, read the Senior Performances Guidelines, or take a copy at the meeting.

• To inform the executive board about your ideas or interest in an individual role, please complete the Senior Survey. NOTE: you will need to login with your falmouthschools.org email address in order to complete the survey.
