Student Activities Notes
Prom: We hope you all had a great time at prom. Please be sure to thank Kristen Maher for providing us all with such a wonderful evening. Do it!
Pranks: Second semester is often accompanied by senior pranks that cause damage and inconvenience to the school. Serious disciplinary (and even legal) action will be taken if pranks are committed before the end of the year. Furthermore, the senior class will have to pay for any damages, which may leave you without a Grad Night. Don’t risk it!
Graduation: Make sure you have taken care of the following…
1. Cap & Gown:

clear them in the SAO as soon as you can or you won’t receive a yearbook

on June 5th. No exceptions!!!
