1. Decision Day Celebration is tomorrow May 2nd at lunch time in the HRV courtyard (12:06-12:38). Remember to check in with the front office if you plan to attend.
2. Stole/Sash purchase information: Do you want to show your cultural heritage on graduation day? You can request a stole using this link. This is not a graduation requirement, and is totally optional. Depending on the number ordered, the Stole could cost around $20-50.
3. Walking Partner: If you already have a walking partner, please fill out this form to pair you up with them on graduation day. If you do not have a partner--DO NOT FRET! We will pair you up and let you know who your partner is before the big day!

Other Important HROA student info:

• If you did not pick up your cap and gown last week, we have it! Come on by and pick it up at any time. If you haven't ordered yet and need to--Please let us know asap! Email me and we will see if we can still order, or we also potentially have some extras that will fit you.
• Required practices: If you do not make it to the senior assemblies listed here on the senior webpage, know that there will be two REQUIRED practices the day before and the day of graduation in order for you to walk. Please also refer to the link above for all upcoming important dates!
• The HROA Senior webpages are very informative and helpful--I strongly suggest bookmarking them until you've made it to the end! Under the HROA Counseling page, scroll down to the bottom where it says "Seniors +"
• Prom and Senior Grad Party: We will be getting the Prom Guest Permission slips in this week, and I will let you know when they arrive. We have the Senior Grad Party permission slips. Come to HROA to get one.
• If you are an early grad and want to attend prom, you will need to attend as a guest. Ask a friend to get a guest permission slip for you! Please email me if you have questions about this policy.
