Pay-it-Forward – Graduation Celebration needs help. If your
student is a freshman, sophomore or junior this year, your help is
needed to put on the Graduation Celebration Party so that the
parents of seniors, many of whom have helped in the past, can relax
and enjoy their child’s accomplishments. This party can only
succeed if parents continue to pay-it-forward and help out during
the early years of their child’s high school career. A commitment
of four hours on the night of graduation is all that is being
asked. If you can help at the event, please contact Patty Lozinto
at 953-7222, or pl******@co*****.net.
