Baby photos for Grad slideshow

We ask that you send us your baby or childhood photo as soon as possible. To ensure that Grad runs seamlessly, it's important to submit this photo sooner rather than later. Last-minute additions can lead to human errors, such as spelling mistakes, which we want to avoid during the presentation of these photos. We appreciate your diligence!

As we approach another year, it is time to begin planning for the 2025 Composite High School grand march, prom, and safe grad. These events are of great significance and we look forward to your active participation in their planning and execution. The prom will take place on the evening of the graduation ceremony, following the grand march. The first hour of the evening will allow graduates to share a dance with their parents before they are escorted away, allowing them to enjoy dinner and a dance to celebrate their achievements. There will be an onsite photographer free of charge capturing key moments of the evening, such as the crowning of the prom king and queen, and a photo booth will be offered.Safe Grad (date to be determined, is a supervised event designed to provide a secure environment for graduates and their guests to celebrate together. This event, often referred to as "Wet Grad," has been a cherished tradition for approximately 50 years and has evolved significantly over the years. As is customary, some parents on our organizing board will be transitioning as their children graduate. We are actively seeking new board members and your involvement is crucial to the success of these important events. If you or someone you know is interested in joining the board, please reach out to one of our moderators. Thank you for your support as we work together to create a memorable experience for our graduates!
