TOHS Green Sheet

Lancer Families,

Happy last week of school! I'd like to open with a few reminders about our Finals Schedule this week. Students who have an A or 7th period and are taking a final will be taking that final on Monday or Tuesday - it is up to each teacher and they will have notified students which day the test will happen (remember, not every teacher gives a final...it pays to double check). Next, remember that 9th-11th graders will be taking their finals on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Periods 1 and 2 will take place on Wednesday, periods 3 and 4 on Thursday and periods 5 and 6 on Friday (see schedule below).

On each of the those three days, students who need to continue or make-up a missed final may do so during our make-up session each day. Students should check with their teaxcher in order to set up a make-up or continuation. The make-up session will take place in room C1 after lunch each day. Yes, lunch is served on each of our finals days, however, students do not need to stay for lunch...they may leave as soon as their finals are done for the day.

Our graduation ceremony will begin promptly at 5pm in the stadium on Wednesday, June 10th. The gates will open at 3pm. Graduation tickets will be given to students after their mandatory graduation practice on Tuesday. Speaking of graduation practice - seniors must attend both practice days (Monday and Tuesday from 8:30 to 12:00). If families have purchased or earned VIP parking, families will need to come in to the office in order to pick them up. Our Activities office will be sending an email early in the week with more details.

In checking the weather for the day - the forecasted temperature is bouncing around a little, but it looks like we will enjoy sunny weather with a temperature in the mid- to upper-seventies. Umbrellas can only be used before or after the ceremony, we ask all attendees to lower their umbrellas during the ceremony so that all families have a good view of their loved ones crossing the stage (this holds true with large signs as well) We won't have staff enforcing the rules, so we ask that families politely remind on another about expectations. Additionally, please leave your noise makers at home. Again, I want all families to hear their graduate's name being called, and noise makers - while fun for you - may ruin another family's day. But courteous and respectful.

On Thursday and Friday, seniors are still required to come to school. On Thursday, seniors will be able to spend the morning signing yearbooks and visiting with one another. On Friday, we will be serving breakfast to our students, and they will be able to pick up their diplomas, panoramic psitures and can return their graduation gowns if they borrowed one. Please note, all fees and fines must be paid and Chromebooks, chargers and textbooks must be returned prior to diplomas being handed out. We will be notifying all seniors who still have fees and fines to pay at their graduation practices.

Last but not least, TOHS will be offering several free Art Camps on campus this summer. Read on:

That's it for now. This is the last Green Sheet of this school year. The next edition will be sent to families on Sunday, August 2nd. One of my first orders of business will be to vote for three new members of the TOHS Site Council.

That's it for now, thanks to all for a great year

Why do students wear gowns at graduation? The answer takes us back to the time when the first universities were being founded during the 12th and 13th centuries. Those universities were typically founded by the clergy and both the professors as well as the students wore gowns and hoods that signified a religious status. Also, since students and faculty wore their gowns all the time, the gowns were a way to differentiate the people at the university from the residents of the town where the university was located. As time passed, these English and European traditions followed their way to the states and the early universities that were being established here. As it was overseas, students were required to wear their “college habits” at all times. During the period immediately following the Civil War there arose a general distaste for anything “British,” which included academic clothing such as gowns. This was when all academic regalia began to be strictly reserved for graduation.

Grad Practice

Seniors, check your email for Mr. Godfrey’s tips to make grad practice more enjoyable!

Don’t forget:

• Grad Walks at our feeder elementary schools after grad practice on Monday!
• In n Out Food truck after grad practice on Tuesday!

Graduation

Need more tickets to the graduation ceremony? While tickets are no longer for sale at the Student Store, tickets will be available at the gate at the ceremony.

Traffic all around the school will be significant, and many will have to park very far away and walk to the stadium. Please consider getting dropped off or taking a ride sharing service.

The Graduation ceremony will be livestreamed. Please click HERE to watch.

If you did not reserve a handicap parking spot, there will be an additional handicap drop off area in the Avenida de las Flores parking lot along the tennis courts. Please pull into the lot entrance closest to the intersection of Avenida de las Flores and Moorpark Rd. Stay to the right. Please do not stop until you have pulled forward into the marked unloading zone.

The California Proficiency Program (CPP) is a voluntary test that assesses proficiency in basic reading, writing, and mathematics skills taught in public schools. Eligible pupils who pass the CHSPE are awarded a Certificate of Proficiency by the State Board of Education. A pupil who receives a Certificate of Proficiency may, with verified approval from the parent or legal guardian, leave high school early. The Certificate of Proficiency, however, is not equivalent to completing all coursework required for regular graduation from high school.
