The Senior Fashion Show
Dear Senior Parents,
 
The time is here—our students are seniors! We have so many O'Hara traditions ahead of us in the coming months that will help our students have a memorable senior year. Last year, we had the wonderful opportunity to work behind the scenes of the senior fashion show and are thrilled to be co-chairing this year's event.  The Class of 2019 voted the Fashion Show as one of their best memories of O'Hara—second to Kairos. We are confident that the Class of 2020 will feel the same way. Please consider encouraging your senior to participate!
 
We have attached the link to the Sign Up Genius for  parents to volunteer . Lastly, there is a brief clip of last year’s event that you can view to get a sneak peak of what it was like. 
 
We thank you in advance for your help in getting the students to sign up for this memorable senior tradition!
 
Thank you,
 
Christine Schumacher and Michele Saunders
