PROJECT GRADUATION 2024

Dear Warrior Senior Parents,

This year's Project Graduation Committee is excited to provide our Class of 2024 Warriors with the special year they deserve. 

We wanted to answer a few questions for you. It's a lot to take in, so please read carefully and reach out with any questions. We are counting on your support!


WHAT IS PROJECT GRADUATION?

Project Graduation is a tradition at many high schools to keep graduates safe and substance-free on graduation night.  For WHRHS, the event will be six hours long, filled with all kinds of indoor activities, entertainment and -- of course -- lots of food and drinks!  All students are required to ride the bus to and from the event, which will be held on graduation night, 6/13/2024, at Iron Peak in Hillsborough, NJ.


WHO RUNS PROJECT GRADUATION? 

Project Graduation is an independent parent organization with their own budget, fundraising events and planning committee.  The committee is supported by the WHRHS PTO. Senior parent volunteers work hard to host various exciting events that lead up to the end-of-year graduation night event. The Chairperson this year is Tina Osmond. She can be reached at projectgradwhrhs@gmail.com


WHAT ARE THE OTHER EVENTS THROUGH THE YEAR?

The fun starts with the PG committee purchasing Class of 2024 T-shirts for Panoramic Senior Picture Day. It continues throughout the year with several Spirit Days and culminates during Senior Week with a special Senior Breakfast and the ever-popular Yearbook Signing and Ice Cream Social events.  This year we have added monthly raffles to get the students excited and raise their spirits.


WHO ATTENDS PROJECT GRADUATION NIGHT?

WHRHS has approximately 449 seniors from the towns of Green Brook, Long Hill, Warren and Watchung who will be graduating on June 13, 2024. The event is open at no cost to the entire WHRHS graduating class, and we hope for 100% participation.


WHO PAYS FOR THE EVENTS?

Project Graduation is funded completely through donations.

The ability to provide all the events throughout the year is only possible through generous donations from our community. This includes the parents, local businesses and community organizations. As we are a regional high school, we are reaching out to the member towns, seeking donations to help offset the costs of this celebration. In the past, we have received pledges as well as goods and services, from many different community members. If you have a business or skill you can offer or know someone willing to help, please let us know!


IS IT TOO LATE TO JOIN THE PG COMMITTEE?
It's not too late to help out and support our Senior Class of 2024. Please email PROJECTGRADWHRHS@GMAIL.COM if you are interested in helping.

Be on the lookout for emails requesting help and posts on our Facebook page.

HOW CAN I HELP?

We are looking for any donation you can offer. 

The easiest way to help is through a family monetary donation. 

The suggested donation for each family is $150.00

This helps defray the cost for all of the events for all 449 graduating seniors throughout the year. 

Each donation is tax deductible and will be proudly displayed in the 2024 Graduation Program.

Checks or Venmo are accepted for the donation *details below.


IF MY STUDENT CAN'T/DOESN'T WANT TO ATTEND SHOULD I STILL DONATE?

ALL students participate in the events throughout the year & SENIOR WEEK even if they choose not to attend the final festivities held graduation night.  These donations help make year-long events happen for all 449 seniors.

**If there are concerns about what your family can contribute or to inquire about sponsorship, please email the committee at ProjectGradWHRHS@gmail.com. All inquiries will be held in the strictest of confidence.  In addition to your own child, if you (or your business) would like to help assist other families with additional sponsorships, your contribution of any denomination would be greatly appreciated.


HOW TO SEND IN YOUR DONATION:

We accept VENMO (preferred), Cash or Checks sent into the Main Office.
