SENIOR INFORMATION 2024

August 2nd, 2023

Parents, guardians, and seniors,

Hello, we are the senior sponsors for Catoosa High School, Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Tognazzini. We will try to keep you informed the best that we can throughout the school year. We will hand out information about fundraisers (Blue & Gold Sausage sales), senior trip, ordering cap and gowns, senior t-shirts, and senior pictures soon. If you have a student that attends Tulsa Tech, concurrent enrollment, job out, alternative education, virtual, blended or other that keeps them from being on campus all day, please stress to them to check with us about events happening with the senior class. 

There is a “Senior Class Info” link on the Catoosa Public Schools website under the “High School” tab to help you all to stay updated with upcoming senior events and deadlines. 

The Senior Google Classroom code is: zebkwty

The Senior remind is: text @dhe3fg to the number 81010

Blue & Gold Sausage: This is the fundraiser that we use to help students pay for the Senior Trip, Yearbook, and Grad Bash. Senior Trips in the past have been 180 points or $180.00 (this is subject to change based on the trip planned), Yearbook is 60 points or $60. You can pick up order forms in the library. Sales will begin in September , we will have four sales throughout the school year. Product is normally delivered a week or two later.

Senior Pictures: Senior panel pictures will be taken on Wednesday, August 23rd, in the High School library from at 8:00-2:00. 

All seniors must wear a black button up shirt, or black blouse for pictures.

Retakes and Cap and Gown pictures will be Tuesday, November 7th in the High School library from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM. **Group Cap and Gown pictures will be scheduled in the spring. That date will be announced at a later time.

For senior pictures for the yearbook, you are free to use whichever photographer you choose. Panel senior pictures will be used in the Yearbook if another picture is not submitted by October 1st.

Ordering Cap & Gowns:  Jostens will be at the school to pass out senior packets with the information on cap and gowns:

October 5th @9:00 AM: Meet with Seniors for Grad product and Cap & Gown presentation and to pass out ordering information.

October 16th @10:00 to end of lunch – Take Senior Grad Product and Class Ring orders

October 16th @4:00-7:00 PM: Parent Night in the Library. 

You may also go to Jostens.com and order items. If you delay and do not order your student’s cap and gown until late, the prices will go up, possibly doubling. 

Senior Trip: Tentative cost is $180.00. A deposit must be made by November of $80.00 or 80 fundraiser points. This is non-refundable, because buses are chartered and tickets are purchased ahead of time. Trip is tentatively scheduled for Friday, May 17th. Fundraiser points are as follows: Sausage- 1.5 points, Bacon- 3 points, Chicken- 3 points. Points = Dollars this price includes the senior t-shirt but must be paid in full. 

Baccalaureate: May 19th at 1:30 PM, Woodcrest Church, please wear your cap and gown to this.

Graduation: May 23rd, 2023 at 7 PM. Graduation is a formal ceremony in which students, their loved ones, teachers and the community come together to celebrate the success of completing high school. With that in mind, appropriate dress is required for graduation.

  • Dress slacks, collared shirts, dresses, or skirts are recommended.

  • Please no flip-flops or work boots.

  • Graduation gowns must not be altered in any way.

  • Graduation gowns must remain zipped at all times during the ceremony.

  • Stoles from outside, accredited, organizations may be worn with prior approval.

Just a reminder, a student must be eligible to participate in Graduation Activities and will need to have met all requirements set by the Board of Education. Also, students need to follow attendance guidelines as detailed by the Student Handbook, failure to do could result in inability to participate in end of year Senior Activities- including but not limited to graduation.

Sincerely,

Jessica Taylor
