Seniors have less than one month to go! If you have not ordered your cap and gown from Jostens, now is the time to do so! Details are still being finalized regarding the graduation ceremony but please note the following:

- No tickets will be required for the ceremony. Gates will open for seating at 5:00pm, however, the campus will not be open to guests until 4:30pm. Guests who arrive before then will be asked to leave and return later. This helps us wrap up our school day for our freshmen-juniors and will help avoid unnecessary traffic congestion.

The girls tennis team is selling Red Berry Barn flower basket vouchers through May 8th. If you’ve ever seen a Red Berry Barn flower basket, they are unique and beautiful! They make a wonderful Mother’s Day gift. If you purchase a voucher, the recipient gets to go to the RBB and select their basket including the colors and shade/sun they want. Vouchers cost $40; the same price as at RBB. Contact a girls tennis player or email coach Roxanne Imbrie at rimbrie@sherwood.k12.or.us and she’ll send a tennis player to get you your vouchers. Thank you Bowmen Nation for your support of girls tennis!
