Hello Seniors and Families,
I hope you all enjoyed our Senior Sign and parade event. It was wonderful seeing some of you and guess what? We are two weeks away from your end of the year activities!
Here is a summary of those activities:
Thursday, June 4th, 6 pm - YouTube Live Event
During this event, we will be showing a recording of your graduation rehearsal. We are going to film a mock walkthrough so that you will know what to expect when you graduate. This event will also be for our BFA Yearbook Dedication!
Friday, June 5th Yearbook, Cap and Gown Distribution
This drive-through event will be held at the Collins Perley Sports Complex. You will need to follow the traffic flow that will be set up and stay in your vehicles. We will have runners that will bring your yearbook, cap, and gown directly to your car. You can then exit the Complex immediately after. The price for your cap and gown is $22. You can bring either cash or make a check payable to Balfour. Also, if you did not order a yearbook, we ordered extra. Yearbooks are $50 cash or check written out to MRUSD.

Graduation - June 9 - June 13th
As stated in last week’s update, this year’s commencement will be a 2-part graduation. It is highly recommended that you watch the YouTube event on Thursday, June 4th at 6 pm. This will be your graduation rehearsal.
On June 9th - 11th you will arrive at the Collins Perley Complex at your assigned time slot. Refer to your time at the end of this document.
You will arrive in your cap and gown, and walk-in alphabetical order. We suggest that you ride to the Complex in the same car as your family. You are limited to two family members to join you for the ceremony. Upon your arrival at the Complex, you will be directed where to park. Please stay in your vehicles until you hear your name announced over the public address system. When called, staff will assist you in lining up outside of the Southside of the Complex. You and your two family members will walk through the ice rink and tennis court, up to the graduation stage. You will walk across the stage and receive your diploma. Once off the stage, you will have an opportunity for a professional photo with Whipple Photography. Your family is welcome to take photos while you are on stage. BFA will be purchasing one professional photo for each senior. Once your photo is taken, you will be ushered out the Northside of the Complex and will return to your vehicles. This whole process will be filmed. All of the graduation speeches will also be pre-recorded. These recordings along with musical pieces will be pulled together as a production for you all to watch from your homes on Saturday, June 13th at 11 am. This will be aired on Northwest Access Broadcast Comast Channel 1079 and YouTube as well. This production will be made available to all seniors in a media file.
