From a small grad class to you...
Donation protected
We are a graduating class of 2021, a small but creative, hardworking and exceptionally close group of individuals, dedicated to making our graduation memorable.
Due to Covid-19, our senior year has been disheartening in a number of different ways; sports events were cancelled, in person classes were reduced to only a couple times a week or not at all, spirit weeks and events around the school all but disappeared. However amidst all the stress and unfortunate circumstances, we have continued to think creatively to create a positive and fun atmosphere for the entire school. We have worked to the best of our abilities to continue to have spirit weeks, clothing drives, contests, decorations and activities for the school to have the best graduating year possible. However, the most important part of our final year of high school ultimately boils down to the end, graduation.
Graduation is one of the most cherished experiences of a young person’s life and our class of 2021 is determined to make it memorable, despite Covid-19. Due to our class being very small, with merely 17 graduates and the pandemic, we are unable to fundraise with the school, so we are raising money independently. We have been going to school together for the past 5 years and we have all watched each other grow into people we’re proud to be, and we have made lifelong friends in our small but strong graduating class. It is proving very difficult to fundraise for this event and therefore, we are asking for your help to fund the final chapter of our high school career, our graduation. We are planning on renting out a golf course for our outdoor venue where we will be having a dinner and dance to allow for social distancing and to follow Covid-19 regulations. However, if this plan falls through, we will plan for something smaller and in the case that we have money left over, we will donate it to a local charity, like the Bear Clan. Anything that you are able to donate is strongly appreciated and helpful even if it’s something small.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read our story and we hope that you will help us reach our goal!
