Capturing Memories Before Graduation

Help me give my students the opportunity to take pictures and make lasting memories together before graduation.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Doyle's classroom raised $363

My Project

Graduation night is right around the corner for my senior students. These final days are both exciting and sentimental. For many, this time marks the final days that the entire graduating class will spend together.

The ultimate goal of this project is to bring students together and celebrate all of the memories they have made together over the last 13 years.

The addition of these backdrops will allow my students to take nice pictures with all of their classmates, family, friends, teachers, and community members. The backdrops will be set up in the hallway on graduation night, each with its own tripod. This will allow students to easily set their cell phone up on the tripod and snap pictures that they will be able to take with them as they exit the building for the last time as students.

This graduating class is so close-knit and it makes me sad to see them finishing up their high school career. Completing this project would be an incredible surprise for them and I look forward to seeing their final days of memory-making unfold.
