To the Seniors & Families of the Class of 2025:

As we begin ramping up activities, recognitions and celebrations for the Class of 2025, we welcome you again to our Senior Source newsletter! This will keep students, parents, and staff updated on all Senior Activities & Events throughout the remainder of the school year.

I believe we have a little less that 70 school days until Graduation, and they will fly by. Seniors, make the most of these final months. Participate in the fun activities planned, enjoy your classes, make good decisions, and keep working hard until you cross that finish line.

Please make sure to review the information below as a family. Keep an eye out for future Senior Source newsletters, as we will be sending them regularly to make sure you have the up-to-the-minute info. Also, follow the Class of 2025 on Instagram @nphsclassof_2025 and bookmark Senior Information on the NPHS website. As always, we are here to answer any questions you might have. Do not hesitate to reach out to me or our AP of Activities, Katie Berry.

Mr. Lepire

Principal

Mark your calendars - Grad Nite at Six Flags is on Friday, June 6th - Saturday June 7th.

Students may only attend if they purchased a ticket during sales days.

Tickets are $160 from February 3rd-February 17th

Tickets are $175 from February 18th-February 23rd

Tickets are $190 from February 24th-February 28th

If you would like to ride the bus with your friends, make sure to purchase your tickets at the same time and choose the same bus number because there will be no switching buses. Tickets can only be used by the student who purchased it - there are no transfers - there are no refunds. After February 28th, no tickets will be sold, so get yours before it is too late!

Season passes are NOT accepted for Grad Nite, as this is a special event.

Grad Nite is an exclusive event where the park is only open to seniors and their school chaperones. There are no student in-and-out privileges. The park is closed to the public and the event is from 8:00 PM - 3:00 AM. Students MUST ride the bus TO and FROM the event, and are required to stay the entire event.

What you can expect: There are thrilling coasters and high energy dance areas featuring DJs playing the hottest hits, as well as movies playing throughout the night at Golden Bear Theater. Some extra grad perks is that every student attending will enjoy an All-You-Can-Eat dinner buffet, a 2025 grad souvenir, and a West Coast 2025 Season Pass.

Link to the Student Store to purchase tickets. (Please refresh your page if you are having trouble). Students may also purchase tickets in person at the Student Store during nutrition, lunch, and after school. The in-person Student Store only accepts cash or check.

The Senior Field Trip Form and the Senior Contract MUST be completed to attend Grad Nite. If you don't remember if you have completed the forms, please reach out to the Activities Office.

March will begin the start of Prom ticket sales, so be on the lookout for that!

Seniors! Order your cap and gown before it's too late!

Graduation is just around the corner and now is the time to make sure you have your cap and gown. All students will need a cap and gown unit. A unit includes the CAP, GOWN, STOLE, and TASSEL.

To order the cap and gown unit, please use THIS LINK.

If you are having trouble navigating the Jostens website, please take a moment to watch the video provided by Jostens or give them a all at 805-987-4147.

If your family would like to order a LOANER cap and gown unit, please use THIS LINK to sign up.

Anyone who is loaning/renting a cap and gown unit will need to return ALL ITEMS before you will receive your diploma after graduation.

The loaner unit return date is MONDAY, JUNE 16, 2025.

More information (including times) will be coming regarding returning the loaner units as we get closer to graduation.

At NPHS, each graduate is to wear a black graduation gown, cap, a 2025 tassel, and a 2025 NPHS Class Stole to the graduation ceremony. Individual students may receive specific academic recognition stoles/cords/pins for accomplishments they have made at NPHS. Those students will be recognized at the Senior Recognition Night on June 3rd, and they will receive their regalia there.

Our CVUSD Board Policy states that any graduating student who has completed basic training and is an active member of any branch of the United States Armed Forces may, at the student's option, wear a military dress uniform at the ceremony (Education Code 35183.3). Any student who has officially enlisted shall be permitted to wear a recognized object provided by any branch of the United States Armed Forces.

Students shall be permitted to wear tribal regalia or recognized objects of religious or cultural significance as an adornment to the customary ceremonial attire, as long as the adornment does not cause a substantial disruption of, or material interference with, the graduation ceremony (Education Code 35183.1). “Adornment” means something attached to, or worn with, but not replacing, the cap and gown customarily worn at school graduation ceremonies. “Cultural” means recognized practices and traditions of a certain group of people.

Students are not permitted to decorate their caps, or have any other adornments without prior administrative approval. Students who desire to wear military dress or any cultural/religious adornments shall notify the school principal at least 14 days before the graduation (May 30th) for approval.

We are having an in-person Graduation on Friday, June 13th at 5pm. Each graduate will need to attend Grad Practices on Wednesday, June 11th & Thursday, June 12th from 8:00 AM-12:00 PM. These practices are mandatory to ensure that the graduation ceremony runs smoothly. If you have any conflict, you will need to contact Mr. Lepire ahead of time. Those who do not attend, and have not been excused, will not be allowed to participate in the ceremony.

The ceremony will be live streamed, and a link will be provided closer to the event.

Tickets: All graduates will receive 2 free tickets for the ceremony, and have the option to purchase up to 8 more tickets for $10 a piece, allowing up to 10 total guests per graduate. Tickets will be available to purchase online only beginning Thursday, May 1st from the NPHS Student Store, and ticket sales will end on Friday, May 31st. No tickets will be sold after that date, so be sure to get your tickets on time.

Handicapped Seating: Seniors, if anyone in your family attending the graduation ceremony will require handicapped seating, a request form will be made available by May 1st. Continue to look out for new Senior Sources for that information.

This year, students and families can order a yard sign for their Seniors.

Signs will be available for pick up during cap and gown distribution.

MARCH 28th is the LAST DAY TO ORDER your Senior Yard Sign!

Yard Signs are $10 each and can be purchased through the Student Store. Please refresh your webpage if the Student Store site does not load.
