OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
By: Greg Kottcamp, Assistant Principal
Save the Date! We will be having our annual D’Evelyn High School Academic Lettering Ceremony on Tuesday, September 20, starting at 7:00 am in the auditorium. The ceremony is only for high school students that earned at least a 3.75 for both semesters of the 2021-2022 school year. At this morning ceremony, students' names will be read, students will walk across the auditorium stage to receive their congratulatory handshake, and then proceed to the back of the auditorium at which point they will be given their lettering materials. Students that are lettering for the first time will receive a certificate of recognition for Academic Lettering, a letterman ‘D’, and an academic lettering pin. Students that have lettered before will receive the certificate and either an academic lettering pin (if it is their first time lettering in Academics) or a bar pin that symbolizes another year of lettering. The ceremony should conclude by 7:30 so students can make it to class on time. We are looking forward to recognizing these students.
