Seniors

Class of 2020

You remain a #1 priority! We are continuing to get guidance from the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and from the State Board of Education. We want to make sure you are set up to graduate on-time so that you can move onto your next adventure. Please communicate via email and google classroom with your teachers, we want to hear from you! Additionally, scholarship information and deadlines can be found in your personal finance google classroom. Also, do not hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Parsons, she already misses you! :) Mrs. Hawley will be sending you a more detailed letter very soon. Stay tuned!

DHS 2020 Graduates

There has been MUCH uncertainty surrounding what graduation will look like this year.  This letter will provide a general overview of what to expect in the coming weeks.  MORE INFORMATION WILL FOLLOW LATER in a detailed flyer.

HOWEVER, uncertain times call for non-traditional answers so here are plans the Davenport School District and a Senior Class Parent Committee have assembled to ensure you and your accomplishments are celebrated and recognized as you embark on the next chapter of your journey…

THIS IS THE BASIC PLAN!

Cap & Gowns:  If you have not picked up your cap & gown from the school - contact us ASAP and make arrangements to get it!  Unlike most seniors -- you are going to have a few opportunities to wear THEM!

Diplomas:  We are not able to to pass out diplomas in a traditional manner -- SO, we will be FILMING diploma handouts in a SCHEDULED manner in the high school auditorium.  You have all been contacted to schedule your filming time!  Please answer so we can get you scheduled either Friday 5/15, Saturday 5/16 or Friday 5/22.  You can also contact Mrs. Parsons to schedule your time.

STUDENTS NEED TO WEAR THEIR ENTIRE CAP & GOWN REGALIA FOR THIS FILMING!  Honor Cords and sashes will be passed out at the school when you arrive.  Come to the tennis court doors in whatever attire you would be wearing to graduation.

Friday, June 5th Evening Drive-In Graduation -

Exact Time:  Arrive @ 6:30 pm (parking). Video of Graduates will start around 7:00 pm.

Location:  Lincoln County Public Works Parking Lot (27234 WA-25, Davenport, WA 99122)

THIS EVENT WILL HAVE LIMITED PARKING - GRADUATES WILL RECEIVE TICKETS FOR VEHICLE ADMISSION.

-At this point we are not allowed to have a TRADITIONAL GRADUATION ceremony so we are instead hosting a drive in ceremony that will include:

         -The Class Speakers
         -The Student Slide Show
         -The earlier filmed diploma handouts

ALL VIA A PROFESSIONALLY PRODUCED VIDEO ON A LARGE RENTED SCREEN!

-We will follow current state guidance as of 6/5.  At this moment though, all graduates will have to remain in their cars with their families during this ceremony. 

Saturday June 6th 3 PM - Davenport Senior Parade Through Town

-Committee Members are planning a parade route through town that will be published in local papers so our community can participate in recognizing our graduates.

-This route will include a “drive by” of the school and the staff so students can offer their THANKS and appreciation to all those that helped and guided you to get to this point.

-STUDENTS NEED TO WEAR THEIR ENTIRE CAP & GOWN REGALIA FOR THIS PARADE and will be informed of when and where to come for the line up.

-MAKE SURE YOU DECORATE YOUR CARS WITH YOUR NAMES ETC…. SO AS YOU ARE DRIVING THROUGH TOWN -- EVERYONE KNOWS WHO THEY ARE CHEERING FOR!

So to Recap!

1-Pick up your Caps & Gowns ASAP from the school if you have not already done that.

2-Please respond to your text message or call and get your diploma video time scheduled.  You can also contact Mrs. Parsons.  Video appointment times are available Friday 5/15, Saturday 5/16 or Friday 5/22.

3-SAVE THE DATE Friday June 5th -- That Evening will be our Drive In Graduation Service that we ask everyone to attend!  This will be the only ceremony that will exhibit class speakers, the slide show, and the diploma receiving videos.  THIS EVENT WILL HAVE LIMITED PARKING SPACE.  NO OVERSIZE VEHICLES (AKA motorhomes etc…) will be permitted.  Students will receive tickets to allow admission for a certain amount of vehicles.  LOCATION & TIME TBD -- STAY TUNED.
