how big is your
high school graduating class?
what do you do that is special when you walk? our seniors each had a flower (saw it in a pic on the website)and i'm assuming they were honoring a student who had died. i didn't go this year because the stadium where they ususally have it is being renovated and the ceremony was held in a city 50 miles away...the disadvantage of living in the country. what color gowns does your school wear? do the boy and the girls wear the same color? we graduated 150 this year. their gowns are dark blue. the beta stoles are gold and the nhs's are white. they get different colored cords for different levels of honors (top 10% i think get red and top 20% get gray...our other two school colors) so what is it like at your graduations???

well, I had 600 graduating in my class ( talk about a LONG ceremony....) the top 10% of the class got to sit on stage, and we were also all given flowers that were dyed in the school colors, and we wore white gowns. All the FIRSTers wore their medals instead of a chord. This was the class of '00

Sachems class of 2002 has 1036 students....
Sachem takes up six entire zip codes. Sachem has 12 elementary schools, 2 junior highs, one high school of 9th and 10th grade, and one high school of 11th and 12th grade. but, that apparently isnt enough... Sachem is currently building new schools so it will soon be 12 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 3 high schools of 9-12th grade. I graduate on june 29, so i'll let you know all the stuffs about it later on. It's outside our school because there's so many kids, and everyone brings a beach ball to play with them until the teachers take them all away. But, I have to be in the front row. Honor Society gets the first 5 rows or so (we have about 100 kids in Honor Society per grade), and my last name is Albrecht. Don't forget, i'm actually 34th in alphabetical order in my grade! (and class rank 64...aw yeah) Last edited by Melancholy : 31-05-2002 at 17:57.

When my class graduated last year the chics wore a horrible paper feeling, green (it didn't match our schools green) and the guys had really nice black robes. We had our ceremony at William and Mary. We had about 200+ students and we were the first class to go all 4 years at my school. There was no separation for nhs except for the tassles and stoals. The senoir class officers sat on stage and we were threatened if we showed up in non approved attire ie no robotics pins or medals allowed. So being the model student that I was I showed up with all my buttons and metals under my robe so that when I was in line for my diploma I unzipped my gown to show off all the pins as i left the stage with my diploma. That was great because everyone who knew what I was doing was supportive.

Our graduating class is (I think) around 85-95 students! Tiny, huh?
Trinity High School altogether has less than 500 students!

you will laugh when i tell you how big my graduating class is....some of ya have 600, try dividing that by.....100. Yup. Six. Go on, count 'em, you can almost do it on one hand.
We don't have school colors (yet), so each class gets to vote what color gowns to wear. Our class voted for grey gowns, and then we are all ordering different colored tassels. As for what's special about our ceremony...well....the school doesn't name a valedictorian (what's the point when there's only six of us??), so the speech is given by whomever volunteers to give a speech. My class wanted me to, but i am so glad someone else volunteered so i don't have to. Basically, the entire ceremony is redesigned each year by that class, which is cool, but extra work when we're already fed up of college apps and stuff. Last edited by Amy Beth : 31-05-2002 at 21:37.

that is REALLY small....but picking your gowns and doing your ceremony is pretty cool. you could each talk for 20 minutes and it probably still wouldn't be like sitting thru a 900 member class!!
r u a senior this year?

Well, take my sister's number (6) and divide by 3. Yes I graduated last in my class, and yet still gave the salutatorian speech. Class of '99
 We wore Forest Green. Try as I might, I couldn't convince the other person to wear Royal Blue. I didn't get to wear Royal Blue until I graduated from my community college. Besides giving the speech, I had a very special ceremony with myself and my parents and lotsa candles on stage (as did the other person) Last edited by Joe Ross : 31-05-2002 at 23:29.
