Baccalaureate Service -
Healdsburg Shared Ministries, under the leadership of the pastors of our community, hosts an annual Baccalaureate Service for the graduating seniors of our local high schools on May 19 at 7:00pm hosted by the Healdsburg Community Church, 1100 University Street.

Community Scholarships are awarded at this service for graduating seniors who have demonstrated exemplary Christian leadership and service in our community.

Speaker Announcement - Sir Ken Robinson will be speaking on June 10 in Santa Rosa. This is an amazing opportunity to experience one of the greatest thinkers of our time with regards to education, learning and child development. Additional information can be found at www.iesonoma.org

Career Center
- Scholarship Night is Monday, May 20, at 7 p.m. in the Smith Robinson Gym. Seniors who got a letter of invitation are expected to attend and we will have nearly 50 presenters from various organizations throughout the community. Parents and family members are welcome to celebrate this night of achievement!

One note - the event runs from 7- 9 p.m. and because some scholarships are "nomination only" seniors should plan to stay the entire evening.

STUDENT ANNOUNCEMENTS
(a sample of the announcements made at the High School)

Hello Seniors - Remember that if you got a Scholarship Night invitation, it's really important that you be at the Smith Robinson gym on Monday evening at 7 p.m. People are waiting to shake your hands and give you awards! There might also be some scholarships you didn't apply for but are getting by nomination. Congratulations for all your hard work, and if for any reason you didn't get a letter and think you should have, see Ms. Watkins in the Career Center on Monday for confirmation.

Graduation Celebration is going to be a really fun time this year, with lots of great prizes. Forms need to be completed with the $40.00 fee and returned to the Student Store by May 15th. If you need a scholarship, indicate that on your registration form. The committee has planned a special night so don't miss it!

Congratulations to all Seniors!
