Project Graduation

Project Graduation held on graduation night, is planned and sponsored by the parents of the high school seniors.  Senior students and one guest enjoy their last night together as a class before they leave for wherever.  This party is drug and alcohol free and is fun for everyone.  The volunteer parents work all year organizing the activities and advertising this party.  San Juan County has the distinction of holding Project Graduation parties at all of its major public high school.  No student in our San Juan County has died or been injured on graduation night since Project Graduation was started over thirty (30) years ago.  Before then, it was expected that one or more students would die or be badly hurt that night.   Project Graduation attracts as high as 80% of the senior class members.  Because of this high rate of participation, Project Graduation would like to take credit for reduction of property damage as well as an increase in student safety.
