All Night Grad Party Planning

SHS has an annual tradition of an all-night party for our graduates, organized and hosted by parents. This year the party will be held on the evening of graduation on Friday, May 31st. We need all hands on deck to pull off this celebration! Interested in helping? Here are a few ways:

  • Sign up to help set up or help at the event. Please sign up by filling out your info on this form. Our school district is requiring that all volunteers in our buildings pass a two part background check. Once you complete the sign up, I will send you a link for the background check. We do want to get a jump on this to complete it so that we are ready to go by the time May comes around. There will not be a fee associated with this check.
  • Join the planning committee if you'd like to help even further. The committee will meet next on February 7th at 6pm in the SHS Library Conference Room. Parents of underclassmen are encouraged to join the committee to learn more and be able to carry on this tradition. I promise you, you can take on as much as you are comfortable with and it is a great way to mingle with other SHS parents.
  • There are a couple fundraisers coming up that will help make this night possible. On January 24th there will be a Meat Raffle at Birds Bar, save the date! Make sure to follow our school's social media @shs.superiorwi to keep up with other fundraisers that will be popping up.


This event is a really awesome tradition that is unique to SHS. Thank you for any way you are able to help this fun and safe way for our students to celebrate. To get involved, please email Nicky Wilson at nickyw2433@gmail.com.
