Senior Honors Night - Monday, April 29 at 6 PM to 8pm in the auditorium
Parent Question: How do we know if our students will be receiving anything at Senior Night?
Answer - you don't. But you can assume if they were in any national organizations, magnet, dual enrollment, CTAE classes, Eagle Scout, Girl Scouts, Honors, Beta, 3.5 GPA or higher, etc. that they are getting something.
Parent Question: What is the dress code for students for this event?
Answer - The student dress code is all black. We normally do cap and gown but because graduation is earlier than normal, we won't have them all here by our awards. We will have them by graduation.
Answer - The Audience's dress is business casual to dressy.
Parent Question: Do we cancel other family plans to attend Senior Honors Night?
Answer - That is a family decision. We invite all seniors and their families. It will be in the auditorium this year, so more comfortable seating. The awards ceremony can be a longer event, if sitting on the hard bleachers of the gym, which is why we are in the auditorium this year. Our seniors are awesome and they do a lot of neat things.
Parent Answer: "Yes, you want to go to the senior honors if you can. It's where they announce all the awards for all the seniors. GPA awards, department awards, AP awards, etc. There are a bunch..."
