We have begun to receive questions specific to graduation activities. I will be sending out a detailed calendar of events during April break which should answer all of your questions and requests. If you need an immediate response to a question please do not hesitate to reach out at your convenience.
We are gearing up for the YES (Year End Studies) sign-up process and will be reviewing expectations with students during a class meeting. We have some new offerings this year and I am sure that your student will have no trouble finding something to sign up for. Students must participate in the YES program all three years prior to their graduating and attendance is mandatory. We have not set the dates yet as we are waiting to see when the last student day will be this year and then we will build out the YES calendar.
I hope everyone is able to enjoy some downtime during the break.
Enjoy the day
Paula
