6.) SENIORS: INFO SHEETS for the graduation program insert are DUE tomorrow, April 30th. As explained to you when they were handed out, the insert is totally optional for the program, and although nice for family, it is not required. You do not have to submit the information. You simply won't be listed in the insert. The office staff will not track you down to make sure your information gets turned in. *Currently less than a third of the graduating class has returned the forms. If 60% of you (or more) do not choose to submit your info forms, we will assume you would prefer not have the insert, and it will be omitted from the program. Thank you.
