A NOTE TO THE PARENTS OF GRADUATING SENIORS FROM THE GRADUATION COORDINATOR

The 58th annual Howard High School Commencement Exercises on Thursday, June 3rd at 12:00 will be here before we know it. Please help your senior stay on top of graduation ceremony requirements. Question them regularly to make sure they are following up on any deadlines that apply, such as cap and gown ordering, ticket requests, special needs for graduation, and requests not to participate in either the award ceremony and/or the graduation ceremony itself.

You may update the information until May 3, 2010Any data received after May 3, 2010 will NOT be recorded in the Graduation Insert.  Thanks for your assistance!

A copy of the “Senior Information Report” is also available on howardhighschool.net under the Student Services Department.
