Grad Night 2010 Information

What is Grad Night?

Grad Night is an all night, drug and alcohol free celebration for the 2010 WSHS senior class. You only have to be a WSHS senior to attend - you do not have to graduate. This celebration starts when you meet at the WSHS parking lot at 9pm and continues until the next morning when you are brought back to the WSHS parking lot at 6am.

What happens during the Grad Night celebration?

You will be bused to two secret venues where FUN, transportation, food, entertainment, activities, music, and prizes will be provided. This will be your last chance to be with all your friends and classmates. DON'T MISS IT! You will be sorry if you don't go. It's going to be a blast!

How much does it cost?

$150 includes transportation, food, entertainment, activities, music, prizes, security and most of all FUN. You can lower your ticket cost by earning 'credit' in Grad Night fundraisers. Hurry though because time and fundraising opportunities are running out! Please see Ms. McKinney in Room 133 for more info about selling Brown Bear Car Wash tickets.

Are there Grad Night tickets still available?

Yes, there are tickets available but quantities are limited.

Are scholarships available?
