ATTENTION CLASS OF 2020 PROGRAD PARTICIPANTS:
AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, MOST OF PROGRAD'S SPRING FUNDRAISERS, INCLUDING OUR BIGGEST FUNDRAISER OF THE YEAR, OUR SENIOR STYLE SHOW, HAD TO BE CANCELLED DUE TO COVID-19. WE POLLED THE CLASS TO DETERMINE IF ACTIVE PROGRAD SENIORS WOULD PREFER USING THE MONEY THAT HAS BEEN RAISED SO FAR TO HAVE A SCALED-DOWN EVENT WITH FEW PRIZES, OR IF THEY WOULD PREFER TO JUST RECEIVE A GIFTCARD INSTEAD. THE VOTE WAS UNANIMOUSLY IN SUPPORT OF GIFTCARD PRIZES WITH NO EVENT, SO THAT IS WHAT THE BOARD HAS DECIDED TO DO WITH THE FUNDS RAISED FOR THE CLASS OF 2020. IN ORDER TO NOT PAY A LOT OF GIFTCARD FEES, HOWEVER, WE HAVE DECIDED TO AWARD AMAZON GIFTCARDS FOR ALL PRIZES THAT ARE $30 OR LESS AND WRITE CHECKS TO ALL OTHERS. WE ASK THAT YOU PLEASE CASH/DEPOSIT THESE CHECKS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO THAT WE CAN PASS THE CHECKBOOK ON TO THE NEXT CLASS WITHOUT LOTS OF OUTSTANDING CHECK ISSUES.
BELOW IS THE CHART OF PRIZE DOLLARS THAT PROGRAD SENIORS WILL RECEIVE FOR EACH POINT RANGE. WE HAVE CALCULATED A DOLLAR VALUE PER POINT SYSTEM, TO FAIRLY DISTRIBUTE THE MONEY TO ALL SENIORS THAT HAD 2000 POINTS OR MORE. PLEASE SEE THE SECOND CHART BELOW TO SEE THE METHODOLOGY USED.
THESE PRIZES WILL BE DISTRIBUTED TO PROGRAD SENIORS ON MAY 28TH AS PART OF THE SENIOR AWARDS, BREAKFAST AND CAR PARADE. PLEASE STOP AT THE PROGRAD TABLE ON THAT DAY TO COLLECT YOUR PRIZE. YOU MUST PRESENT A DRIVERS LICENSE OR STUDENT ID TO COLLECT YOUR PRIZE. PLEASE HAVE A PEN HANDY IN YOUR CAR TO SIGN FOR YOUR PRIZE AS WELL.

Hello Seniors and Parents,
We will be having our senior parade May 28th from 9:10am-10:50am. We will have the parade go through the student parking entrance and then out through the bus ramp. If getting an honor award, they will be handed out in the front circle drive which will be the last station they stop at. They will be getting their senior breakfast, honor awards/cords, and ProGrad prizes (only if a Prograd participant.) We will have teachers and parents park in the student parking lot so the bus ramp is open for all the traffic. Feel free to bring posters, signs, anything to get the students excited and to send them off in style. I look forward to seeing all of you there.
Seniors must remain in their cars the entire time.
Parents and Teachers - Reminder: Please remember to bring your mask and arrive early due to traffic.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me anytime.
