The teacher-advisors work with the class officers on fundraising activities; class parents are available to support and assist.

Fundraising - why?
Fundraising proceeds this year will be added to the total raised in the previous
three years which is applied to some of the expenses of graduation: caps and
gowns, the yearbook, prom, and other related costs. This money is not used for
the Graduation Gala.
This year's fundraising events
include
the Homecoming Dance, all-school talent show, and possibly a white elephant
rummage sale, holiday candy sale, Valentine's Day Candygrams, or another
approved fundraiser.
Class officers take the
lead This is the
year when students assume greatest responsibility for fundraising decisions and
actions which will directly affect the festivities at graduation time. It is a
time for kids to work co-operatively with others and experience both success and
failure in a safe environment. The faculty advisors co-ordinate and guide the
class officers in recruiting others and performing the tasks required for
successful events. Class parents provide support as requested by the class
officers and faculty advisors. Mr. Furrevig is the advisor and contact for
everyone involved.
As
seniors, the student officers will contact the supplier for caps and gowns and
arrange for a list of senior measurements, organize writeups for the yearbook,
continue working with banquet and prom sites to finalize attendance, and begin
arranging for chaperones for each activity. The outcome of everyone’s
efforts will be both an unforgettable graduation day, and a learning experience
about planning and working co-operatively with others.
