SENIOR PARTIES

Several years ago as a service to senior parents, the PAT developed a Senior Calendar to aid with scheduling parties. It serves as a clearinghouse so that parties will not be scheduled at the same time. It is strongly recommended that the dates for all parties be placed on the senior calendar by calling the Senior Calendar Coordinator. This is not the official school calendar, although school events, including athletic events, are put on the Senior Calendar in order to avoid conflicts and to help with selecting a day and time for the party.

The PAT suggests the following guidelines to make senior parties a pleasant experience for everyone:

· Both the PAT and the administration encourage that the guest list reflects the senior class – younger students will have the opportunity to attend parties when they are seniors themselves.

· No more than 2 parties per senior when that senior is the only honoree; the senior may be part of as many group parties as desired. There is only so much space on the calendar and we want everyone to have the chance to get a time slot.

· No parties during exam weeks.

· Remember that AP labs are scheduled on Wednesday and Thursday mornings. This would affect guests invited to breakfasts.

· No alcoholic beverages served.

· No parties on graduation night.

· Remind your seniors to RSVP in a timely manner!

· Mail the invitations – do not place in school lockers.

Please pass these guidelines on to anyone that is hosting a party for your senior.

Call me if you have any questions or if you know of conflicting events (i.e. church or community events or anything that would adversely affect a party’s attendance) that should be added to the calendar.

Thanks so much for your cooperation!
