All Night Grad Party Update

ANG St James

 

Tickets for the All Night Grad Party will go on sale in March!

We are less than two months away from the launch of our ticket sales for the All Night Graduation Party.  We are excited about the party we are planning for our graduates and hope you will join us in making this happen.  We have a number of fundraising activities coming up where we will need parent volunteers and support, including:

  • Community Fundraising Campaign
  • Online Silent Auction
  • Modelers Show Concessions
  • Graduation Yard Signs

We also will be looking for parent volunteers to help at the party on graduation night, June 4. Please come out to our Committee Meeting or email us at: ANG@fairfaxptsa.org  to find out more about how you can help.

 

Next ANG Meeting: February 21, 2024

Our next Committee Meeting is on February 21, 7:00 pm, at FHS in the FHS Library (upstairs). 

We encourage people to join us in person, but if that is not possible, we will be live streaming on Zoom:
