Hello seniors!
Graduation is coming up quickly, so it's time to get on the ball and get things organized. Here's an information dump post with everything you need to know about graduation and everything we need to know from you.
Pre-Graduation EventsThere will be a pre-graduation hoorah party on Friday, May 4.
There will be a post-graduation brunch on Sunday, May 6.
There will possibly also be a few smaller events the week before graduation. Details pending.
Graduation CeremonyWhen: Saturday, May 5, 2007
Where: Fandom High
What: A ceremony with a musical performance and guest speakers. Seniors will receive their senior diploma. (And come on, it's Fandom High, you know something big is going to happen)
Who: Seniors, guests/guardians of seniors (max 3) and current alumni.
Invited GuestsGraduating seniors can have up to 3 guests come to Fandom for the ceremony. If you really need more than 3 for some reason, contact us. There can be exceptions to the maximum for good reasons. They can arrive on Friday, May 4 and must leave by the morning of Monday, May 7.
All guests (including returning alumni) will be required to stay in town. The Arms Hotel will be available for rooms with a discounted weekend package deal. Guests will be allowed on campus for the weekend.
Invited guest NPCs can have their own journal (ala Parents Weekend), but all guests (whether your character knows about their appearance ICly or not) must be approved in advance.
Please provide us with the following information for each guest:
Name:
Relationship to Student:
Journal Name:
Who will be playing this character?: (outsiders welcome)
In order for your guest/s to attend, you must submit this information by Wednesday, May 2. No late submissions will be accepted. Email them to administration@fandomhigh.net
Again, this is only for seniors. Other classes are more than welcome to attend, but you can't bring your own guests.
Staying in Fandom Over SummerWe gathered tentative answers from you before, but now we need to know for sure if you intend on staying in Fandom for Summer Semester Term 1. You may leave for Term 1 and return for Term 2, but will have to be gone by the end of the Summer.
Graduating seniors who are remaining in Fandom must have a set activity that they will actively participate in. There will be the opportunity to participate a construction/manual labor effort or you may be a "TA" type workshop assistant for a teacher (you must arrange this yourself with a teacher, one workshop assistant per workshop) or you now have the option of leading a workshop yourself.
Please note, by submitting a proposal to lead a workshop you agree to stick around for the whole term, will be treated like a teacher, will be expected to act like a teacher and will be required to abide by the same rules as a teacher (exception being that you can still go into common room/campfire posts).
If you wish to lead a workshop, please submit your proposal here:
http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh_ooc/413066.htmlPlease don't send in proposals for any weapons/explosives/combat/survival type courses. We have plenty and won't be accepting any more. Feel free to contact one of the admins or mods to discuss possible options. Your submission for workshops must be in by Thursday, April 26. No late submissions will be accepted.
ETA: Post has been edited to fix up the form for invited guests and tell you where to send the info.
ETA 2: As with last year, all residents of Fandom are welcome to attend the ceremony. The only people that are considered 'invited guests' are people from off the island.
