WE’RE COUNTING DOWN to graduation, promotions, honors, concluding our 84th school year with many student successes in academics, activities, athletics, leadership, and personal growth.  But before we get to graduation day, June 5th, we’ve much to do and studies to complete.  We hope
many parents can join us for our celebrations, and also in preparing our boys and girls for end-of-term exams, programs, and projects.

ALL SCHOOL SCIENCE FIELD TRIP on Thursday, May 1st, 10:00 to 3:00, visiting Body Worlds 3 and the IMAX show at the Museum of Science.

AP EXAMS for many high school students, and semester finals for everyone, are scheduled through June 4th.  It is especially important not to make discretionary appointments during exams, as most absences cannot be made up.  See the calendar for dates of these exams.

“PETER PAN” – an abbreviated version – will be presented by the Drama Class in Lincoln Hall Saturday evening, May 17th, at 7:00 p.m.

THE INTERNATIONAL CLUB PRESENTS A LUAU for all students Wednesday evening, May 21st, paid by the I-Club’s year-long fundraising, with a whole roast pig, Polynesian dancers and music, games and contests, and the drawings for the club’s raffle prizes.  Commuting students should plan to go home at 8:30 that evening after the luau.  Hawaiian dress is welcome all that day, with a sweater needed for the evening dinner.

THE SPORTS AWARDS DINNER is for all students who participated with varsity or junior varsity teams, Wednesday evening, May 28th.  We’re sorry, but this event is for students only, not parents.  Commuters attending the awards program should be finished by eight p.m.

OUR ANNUAL ALL-SCHOOL TRACK AND FIELD MEET is Friday, May 23, concluding with awards presentations at 4:00 p.m., when the long weekend begins.  There are no classes on Monday, May 26th, Memorial Day in the United States, honoring those who gave their lives in service.

THE PROM is June 1st, and all high school students are invited and encouraged to attend this dinner-dance yacht cruise.  Details on The Prom will be sent mid-May to parents of students who are attending.  Prom-goers may sleep in Monday morning the 2nd, with exams that afternoon.

GRADUATION DAY, THURSDAY, JUNE 5th, is for all students, and local parents are urged to come at noon for the honors program, with a buffet luncheon following the Commencement.  Commuting students are expected for the usual 8:00 arrival and assembly, with blazer dress.
