Sober Grad-On Saturday, January 29, 2022, we will be having our annual sober grad drive-thru tri-tip dinner. It is held at El Portal school from 4:30 pm- 6 pm. Tickets are $55 and come with tri-tip, 4 baked potatoes, a loaf of bread, a bag of salad, and a liter of soda. Tickets are available now. The sober grad event is usually something that is held on graduation night. It's always been a fun-filled night with activities, music, food, and PRIZES that provide a safe place for our students to celebrate. We are asking that the seniors sell tickets to this event. For every 5 tickets, they sell they get $5 off their sober grad ticket. They also have the opportunity to volunteer the day of and earn $10 off their ticket. This is the main fundraiser for this event, and any future event put on by the committee. Packets of tickets are available for the seniors to check out. Please contact, Renee Snow at (209) 602-3241 to pick up your tickets or if you or your senior would like to volunteer. A flyer with all this information is located on the wall outside the office.
