Churchill High School Graduation Information Night

www.chs.lane.edu/graduation

chs.4j.lane.edu/graduation

Graduation is a ceremony, not a celebration. The celebration begins when students toss their caps at the end of the ceremony. It is a special event for all graduates and their families. Respect the experience of other graduates and their families. Show PRIDE. Noisemakers and disruptive props will not be allowed at graduation. 🚬 Senior Pranks: There is no such thing as a harmless prank. Damage to school district property may have legal consequences. 🚬 Senior Skip Day: Churchill High School does not support Senior Skip Day. Students who participate in a skip day will be marked as an unexcused absence.
