Graduating Seniors (who are participating) will report to the cafeteria at 1:00 pm. School staff will line them up in alphabetical order.
Students are allowed to wear jeans with their School/College/Career shirt. It is preferred that students do not reveal their college/career choice until they announce their decision.

After the announcement is made, the student will proceed to their assigned table/seat.
