Senior Grad Night Event

Monday, June 8
Following graduation

Parents and 2026 Graduates,

The Glacier Peak 2026 Graduation Party Committee is looking forward to a fun, safe, and substance-free all-night celebration immediately following the graduation ceremony. The following information should answer any questions you may have. It is imperative that both parents/guardians and graduates read and understand this.

What is the Graduation Party:

Glacier Peak's 2026 Graduation Party is an opportunity for all seniors to participate in a special evening of celebration, fun, and memories. This is not a school-sponsored event but has been planned and organized by a parent volunteer committee of the Glacier Peak High School class of 2026.

Where will the party be held:

The location of the celebration will be a surprise to the students until they arrive at the site. The planning committee will know where the students are at all times. We have kept it a surprise for good reason - SAFETY! This event is for the Class of 2026 only, and we do not want any uninvited participants.

When does it take place:

Buses will leave immediately following the completion of graduation at Angel of the Winds Arena and will return around 6:00 AM.

For the safety of all, rules of conduct for the night are:

•

This is a Drug and Alcohol-free event. If, at any time during the event, there is any suspicion that you are under the influence of, or in the possession of, drugs or alcohol, you will be required to submit to an additional search. If you are found in violation, your parents will be required to immediately come and pick you up.

•	Be respectful of classmates, chaperones, personnel, and property. If you damage or deface any property, you and your parents/guardians will be responsible for payment of the damages.

•	Avoid the use of inappropriate or abusive language.

•	Students will not be allowed to leave the party early unless this is prearranged with written permission from a parent/guardian.

Important information for after the Graduation Ceremony

•	We will meet in the area behind the stage following the graduation ceremony

•	GRADS, please be mindful of the time. Graduates need to be checked in with their wristbands no later than 9:40 PM

•	After the graduates have had a chance to see parents/friends following the ceremony, please head to the locker room to change.

•	Buses will leave promptly at 10:00 PM

•	Please plan to give your cap/gown and commencement clothes back to your parents to take home

•	GRADS WILL ONLY BE ALLOWED TO TAKE THE CINCH SACK GIVEN TO THEM AT CHECK IN ONTO THE BUS

•	Once the student is checked in, they will receive a colored wristband that will coordinate with the bus they will be on. The bus the student departs on will be the same bus that brings them back to the High School the following morning.

•	ALL SENIORS WILL UNDERGO A PERSONAL SEARCH PRIOR TO BOARDING THE BUS

•	Students are not allowed to leave the event at any time

What to bring with you:

•	Wear comfortable casual attire, including a warm jacket or long sleeve sweatshirt.

•	Please wear closed-toe shoes (they are required for some events; sandals are discouraged). Socks are strongly recommended.

•	You may bring a camera or cell phone but are responsible for it at all times.

•	Any medical needs (Epi-pen, insulin, inhaler, etc.).

What NOT to bring with you:

•	No purses, bags, or backpacks.

•	No money is needed.

•	No food or beverages.

•	THERE WILL BE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR TOBACCO, ALCOHOL, DRUGS, OR WEAPONS OF ANY KIND.

•

Participants shall conduct themselves in an adult manner and shall follow any and all directions issued by representatives of the Graduation Party Committee, representatives of the event site, and parent chaperones/volunteers. In the event a participant is found in possession of a banned substance or weapon or whose conduct is unbecoming, they shall be immediately removed from the event. The person(s) listed as a contact will be notified and will be responsible for the immediate transportation of the participant from the celebration with no refund issued.

Buses will return to Glacier Peak about 6:00 AM. Please make arrangements for transportation home prior to the Graduation party. Parents, keep in mind that this is an all-night event and students will be tired. We suggest students do not drive themselves home. It is recommended that students DO NOT leave cars in the school parking lot overnight. If they do, it is at their own risk.

If you have any further questions, please contact the Graduation Party Committee at gpgradnight2026@gmail.com.

Valedictorian Information

Valedictorian information

Purpose: The Snohomish School District recognizes and honors students for exemplary academic achievement. The designation of valedictorian is reserved for graduating seniors who have demonstrated the highest level of academic excellence as defined by this guidance.

Eligibility criteria for valedictorian:

Grade point average (GPA): Students who have the highest cumulative GPA (most likely a 4.0) when identification takes place (see identification timeline).
All classes are weighted the same in the calculation of cumulative GPA for valedictorian determination.
Students must be on-track to graduate when identified (i.e. not in the process of taking and/or planning to take credit recovery).

Identification timeline of valedictorian(s):

Valedictorians will be identified after the last documented (transcripted) grade term prior to the end of the school year (before June).
For most non-Running Start students, this will be first semester of their senior year.
For most Running Start students this will be at the end of the Winter Quarter of their senior year.
Final semester/quarter: For all students, second semester (or Spring Quarter for Running Start students) will not be considered in determining Valedictorian eligibility.
Multiple valedictorians: In cases where multiple students meet the eligibility criteria, all qualifying students will be designated as Valedictorians.
