Grad Night FAQ's

  What is Grad Night?

Grad Night is an all-night event created to promote a safe, supervised, alcohol—and drug-free evening for graduating seniors. Through donations and the work of senior parent volunteers, Grad Night provides a place to celebrate the students' achievements and enjoy a fun event with their friends and classmates while keeping them safe.

When is it?

It will be held on Friday, June 6, 2025.  After the graduation ceremony concludes, the students will have 30 minutes to take photos with family and friends before changing out of their robes and into casual clothes. They will then check in at the Grad Night station on campus, board the buses, and OFF THEY GO!!!  Buses start leaving at 8:15pm.

Do graduates really like the party?

Absolutely! Year after year, students who attend Grad Night rave about how much fun it was and this year promises to deliver more of the same! For the past few years, most seniors have attended. The goal every year is 100% participation.

Is it a dance?

No. While there is a DJ and the students may dance, it’s a fun-filled night with all-night food, beverages, activities, games, and other entertainment. There will also be quiet activities for those who wish to be less active or take a break from all the fun.

Do they have to dress up?

The party is very casual. Graduates may wear whatever is comfortable and allows movement to participate in various activities throughout the night. Closed-toe shoes are required.

Can parents attend Grad Night or take pictures?

This is an event for the students to celebrate graduation as a class. Only parents who volunteer to work at the event are allowed to attend.

Why is the location kept secret? Will Parents know the site in advance?

It is kept secret for two reasons: One is to keep the students guessing about the location, which adds to the adventure, and the other is to ensure that there is no contraband or gate crashing. Only a few parents will know the site. Committee members and volunteers will be informed on a need-to-know basis. 

How much does it cost?

The price of admission includes site rental cost, charter buses, food & beverage, activities, prizes, and entertainment for the seven hours they are at the party.

$195: Discount tickets available now!

$225: March 1st

$250: May 1st

Do graduates need to bring money? 

No, the admission price includes everything for every person for the entire night!

Why does the PTSA request donations?

The PTSA raises funds for Grad Night because the initial discounted price is lower than the per-student cost, and the PTSA provides scholarships for those who would find the admission price a hardship. Please consider donating directly to this important event.

What if my family can’t afford the admission fee?

Scholarships are available through the Grad Night Fundraising Committee. You can request a full or partial scholarship on the online registration form.

Why is the party so long? 

The goal is to provide a full night of safe celebration for the graduates.

Will my graduate be allowed to leave the party early?

Yes. Early departures may be arranged with the grad committee prior to the party, and the graduate must be picked up by a parent or guardian.

Do parents have to pick graduates up from LAHS?

Transportation is provided to and from the event site. Each student will need transportation home from LAHS after Grad Night, at approximately 3:30AM. Students may leave a car in the LAHS parking lot; a security guard will be in attendance to ensure cars are safe after graduation.
