Senior Parents:

Your senior will be receiving Graduation Announcements (10).  They are not tickets!!  They are announcements to send to family/friends announcing your child’s graduation ceremony information.  The tickets will be distributed during their June rehearsal.  They will receive 7 tickets (5-gym and 2-auditorium).  Tickets are only needed in case the graduation is held indoors.
