SENIOR NEWS

Hello, I’m Dawnmarie Riley, parent of senior student Evan Riley, and I’ve volunteered to be the senior parent liaison for information you and your senior will want to know this year.  It would help if I know who you are and who your student is when you contact me.  I can be reached at riley.dawnmarie@gmail.com or at 337-0154.

Several places in town have been advertising senior pictures with specials through September.  Students who had their pictures taken at school recently by Lifetouch may also use those for the yearbook.  Nina says there is a packet from Lifetouch or Jostens with information about rings, gowns, etc. and we can send out hardcopies of this as well as other announcements throughout the year.  A $5.00 donation payable to Class of 2011 – Postage would be greatly appreciated to help defray the cost of these mailings.

This first notice includes some highlights of what will be going on, plus ideas students are tossing around as possibilities for the year.
