Churchill High School Senior Class Newsletter

Churchill Class of 2025 and Families,

With only 5 school days left for seniors, it's time to wrap things up! Please make sure you return all library books. You also need to return your school computers and their chargers. Don't forget to clean out your lockers. You can use Google Takeout to save any important schoolwork from your 4J account to a personal account before your school accounts are closed. Go to takeout.google.com to get started,

Now that you have your caps and gowns, remember that cap decorations must be 2-dimensional and school-appropriate. For more details about how to dress for graduation, review the slides from the Graduation Information Meetings HERE. If you missed the gown pickup today, you can get your gown at the front office any day next week.

Don't forget to bring your cap and gown on Monday for the Senior Parade. The bus departs at 12:15 PM. Permission slips were due on Friday for the school nurse to review. No permission slips will be accepted on Monday.

Requests for ADA seating accommodations can be made with the Hult Center directly. Please make your requests as soon as possible. Look for details in the newsletter below.

The last day to sign up for walking partners is Wednesday, June 4. Sign up using the pink slips outside Jill's office.

Remember to register for the Grad Party. You can sign up at the door, but it really helps the party planners if they know how many people to expect.

Finally, we can't wait to celebrate our seniors at the Senior Assembly on Friday, June 6. We'll knight the seniors, announce awards, and have a special send-off from our staff. See you there, seniors!


With PRIDE,
Churchill Graduation Committee

Graduation Information

Graduation Ceremony: Accessibility & Accommodations

The Hult Center is committed to ensuring all guests can comfortably and safely enjoy the graduation ceremony. If anyone in your party requires seating or access accommodations (e.g., accessible seating, extra legroom, or noise-canceling headphones), please complete the Guest Accommodation Request Form as soon as possible.

You can make ADA seating accommodation requests through Jill in the front office or by contacting Hult Center staff directly. Please be ready to provide the section your tickets are in.


The Hult Center will do their best to seat parties together, though some alternate seating may only allow one companion.

Interpreters at Graduation: Spanish and ASL

Spanish and ASL interpretation will be available at the graduation ceremony. To ensure we have enough headsets for our Spanish-speaking guests and reserved seating for those needing ASL interpretation, please email Jill at reents_ji@4j.lane.edu with the number of guests requiring an interpreter.

⚠️ Before You Graduate: Save Your School Data 💾

With only two weeks left before you graduate, now is the time to save your school data before you lose access to your 4J accounts.

When you finish your graduation requirements, your 4J accounts will be closed. This means you will lose access to StudentVUE, Canvas, your school Gmail, Google Drive, and other 4J accounts. 

Google Files, Emails, and Contacts — DO THIS ASAP:
Make sure to save any files or data you want to keep from your school accounts to a personal device, an external drive, or your personal Google Drive. Use Google Takeout to download your 4J Google data at takeout.google.com
It may take a few days for Google to process your request. Be sure to do this before your school account is turned off, which might be immediately at the end of your last day of classes.

Naviance and other 3rd-Party accounts:
If you use your school email for your Naviance account, change it to a personal email address so you can still access it. Do the same for any other accounts that use your school email to log in.

📜 Transcript Requests 📧

Seniors – Many of you will need to request final transcripts. Request your transcript now using this form:  https://forms.gle/NyGjkSzcNZYrfM3b9
 
Please note that you need to use your 4J email to complete the form. Transcripts will be ready starting June 23. Contact your Counselor with any questions.

Emailed transcript requests after graduation will cause significant delays in your college admission process. Make sure to submit your request today!
Information on how graduating seniors and families can opt-in to view and purchase their commencement photos taken by Lifetouch. Includes a QR code and a text-in option.
