Project Graduation is an all-night celebration for students held the night of graduation. This event is hosted by many high schools across the nation to provide graduates with a safe place to celebrate in a substance free environment. In the 34 years that this event has occurred at HK, there have been ZERO fatalities involving our new high school graduates on graduation night. Help us get to 35 - 0.
There is tons of food, games and entertainment. Everyone leaves with a prize – even some with a TV! The celebration gives students one last night to be together as a class and create lifetime memories.
We are a committee of volunteers from the community. Most of us have kids in high school, but all members of the HK community are welcome. There are plenty of ways to get involved, whether you are great at decorating, fundraising, or any type of planning. Visit the Committees and Volunteer Opportunities page for more information, and be sure to join our mailing list to stay informed.
Any level of assistance is welcome…join meetings when you can and check our page to see how you can help. If you have questions or ideas send an email to hkprojectgraduation@gmail.com.
