My Project

Every year, to celebrate our juniors and seniors, we have a huge all-night party to celebrate our students who have met our state's TOPS graduation requirements. In addition to having tons of food and activities, we give away prizes all night.

We get many small prizes donated, but we also like to have a few larger items or fun items that juniors and seniors really want: this year, we would love to include an electric scooter as one of these big prizes as well as novelty blankets and a game as smaller prizes.

Our students would love to have these to use at their homes or on their new college campuses!

These prizes will be a huge motivator for our students to meet all of the TOPS requirements - which are established to predict post-graduation success. With your help, we make our 2025 celebration very special!
