Each class has specific activities available for fundraising. Student responsibility and ownership of projects increases with each succeeding year. Freshman activities are limited because the students and advisors are new, and the need to raise money for senior year activities is not critical. Advisors should familiarize their new students with high school life, and lay the groundwork for the next three years. The fundraising pace increases as officers and advisors become more focused on senior year goals.
Advisors encourage class officers to take a more active role.
There will be less input from the advisors, and more emphasis on total involvement from the class. The class assumes an identity derived from commitment to the arrangement and funding of graduation. Site selection for the senior banquet and prom begin. Down payments and contracts should be done in June. The pace accelerates, and class officers and advisors are able to enter the next year fully prepared, both financially and spiritually.
