Farmington High School Project Graduation 2014

Where can high school seniors celebrate their graduation in a safe, fun environment?  Currently, planning is underway for Project Graduation 2014.  This event is an all-night, substance-free party for graduating seniors.  The venue for this years’ Project Graduation is Farmington Farms Tennis & Athletic Club and will be held following the graduation ceremonies tentatively set for June 18, 2014.

The night of graduation, Farmington Farms will be transformed by parents on the decorating committee to showcase FHS graduating seniors.  The event is traditionally attended by almost all seniors and will include entertainment, food, contests, and prizes. 

Community support is again needed and appreciated.  Project Graduation costs approximately $35,000 for the night.  If you would like to help with the event in any way, tax-deductible donations can be mailed to Project Graduation, P.O. Box 914, Farmington, CT 06034.

It is truly a community event and one that the Project Graduation Committee is proud to plan and organize. This event would not be possible without the support of the Farmington community.
