"It's Still Your Year!" SCVi's Class of 2020 Graduation Festivities!
As we move into the last two weeks before graduation, we are excited with the news that we were able to include a Drive-Through Receipt of Diploma experience to our Virtual Graduation Ceremony.
As we move forward into the next two weeks, know that marking this time in a way each senior deserves is one of our main goals. The other goal is to ensure the safety of all involved. We greatly appreciate your reading and following the guidelines carefully to help us realize both goals. Thank you!
Our SCVi Upper School, Innovation Studios, and Explorations Staff would like to extend our well wishes as well as a big thank you for entrusting your graduate's educational journey in our care. We've enjoyed learning alongside your senior, and we look forward to hearing about all the wonderful things they will accomplish on their next stage in life.
It's been an honor and a pleasure to be the Senior Advisor. Congratulations to the Class of 2020 and their families! I'm very proud of the grit and character it has taken you to make it to this momentous occasion.
As always, please email me with any questions or concerns. cheryl.sena@scvi-k12.org.
For more information on ways you can make the week special for your senior, please read on!

Senior Family Sunset, Wednesday, June 3 at 7:30 p.m.
This year, seniors will gather with their families to reflect on their school years. Snacks, tissues, and hot chocolate recommended. The sun is scheduled to set around 8:03 p.m.
It's a time to pause and mark the journey you've been on and look forward to the next adventure.
Parents, this is the time to share the letters you were asked to write last month along with any other letters you may have collected, and talk about all your memories of your senior through their years of their grade school and high school schooling. You probably want to do this before 7:00 p.m. to give you time to prepare or get snacks for the sunset.
At 7:30 p.m., take out your phone and log into ZOOM to share the sunset with your fellow seniors and their families. Now's the time to use those bubbles from your grad kit.

Seniors, right before sunset, read the letter your wrote during last year's sunrise (Mrs. Cedeno mailed them to you last week.)
Everyone - spend a moment taking in the last sunset before your graduation day.
“There's a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they're absolutely free. Don't miss so many of them.”
