Seniors Overview
Hard copies of all permission slips will be in the main office, and digital forms are linked below.
Reminder of Senior Attendance Requirements:
The expectation is that all seniors maintain a second semester cumulative attendance rate of 80% or higher to remain eligible for participation in senior events. Please note that absences are cumulative, meaning excused and unexcused absences count the same toward overall attendance. Seniors whose attendance is below the 80% threshold will not be eligible to purchase tickets.
