Jack isn't afraid to admit that sometimes his dinner table song of choice is the SpongeBob theme song (no he doesn't mean on the TV), but who doesn’t love that crazy yellow sponge and his trusty star-shaped sidekick?!

The SpongeBob Musical page on our website has been updated!

Class of 2022

This year’s baccalaureate will be June 9 and needs your help to plan.

This special ceremony is another opportunity to celebrate with your peers your hard work over the last 4 years within a faith-based context. If you would be interested in helping please speak with Mr. Hedge in room 205.

Change in Format for Graduation Class of 2022.....Back to Traditional !

RA Long High School Students and Families,

There has been a great deal of feedback on our proposed graduation format. After reviewing those concerns/requests from both parents and students, we have decided to return to the “traditional” format that will include:

• Pomp and Circumstance (student walking the track to their ceremonial seats)
• Senior Choir
• Superintendent’s Comments
• Board Member’s Words for Seniors
• Traditional Speeches(Looking Back, Looking Forward, and Principal’s remarks)
• Reading of each Seniors name and receiving the diploma
• The presentation of the Class of 2022 and changing of the tassel.

We will also stage the front on the school for additional photo opportunities and you can come at your leisure following the ceremony between 11:30-2:00. Our school makes a beautiful backdrop for photos to celebrate with your graduate.

 

All the best,

R Reeves, Principal, RA Long High School.
