Every year the PTSA throws a Grad Night Party for the Graduating Seniors. This is an all night party from 10pm to 6am on June 16. We need parent volunteers to help with the night. We have positions from registering the seniors at school to chaperoning all night. Any card players out there? We will have black jack tables and would love dealers. Anyone great at crowd movement? We need people to help get students on the correct bus. Office managers, admins? Come and help register the students and check for missing signatures. Please help us throw a great celebration and one day an underclassman parent will be chaperoning your student.
