A MESSAGE FROM CLASS OF 2027 CHAIR MAGALLY LOPEZ

Hello Class of 2027 Families,

September was filled with exciting milestones for our seniors! A huge thank you to the incredible parent volunteers who helped make the September Senior Surprise such a memorable experience. The event was filled with fun, celebration, and special moments that our seniors will remember long after graduation.

We also wrapped up another successful Popcorn Fundraiser, raising an impressive $4,121.50 for the Class of 2027. Congratulations to our top sellers, Estefania Lopez, Analise Potter, and Bella Williams, whose outstanding efforts helped make the fundraiser a success. Special recognition goes to Estefania Lopez for earning six reserved seats at Baccalaureate as our top fundraiser!

Most importantly, thank you to every senior and family who participated. Your support helps fund the activities, traditions, and celebrations that make senior year so meaningful. As an added bonus, all seniors who participated in the fundraiser will be entered into a drawing for a dorm refrigerator to take with them to college. We are grateful for the enthusiasm and generosity of the Class of 2027 community and look forward to many more opportunities to celebrate our seniors throughout the year!
