Decision Day

Help me give my students a memorable Decision Day before they graduate high school.

My Project

My students are in 12th grade and are beginning to realize that they are very close to being sent out into the real world upon graduating from high school. This year, I want to give them a memorable day of fun and celebration of how far they've come by hosting a Decision Day.

My goal for Decision Day is to have students tie-dye their Decision Day t-shirts with the colors of the school they are attending, or their favorite colors if they are going to the military or a trade school or to work.

I then plan to have a variety of games and activities (think water guns, candy, with a sprinkling of advice) to make this one of their most memorable days in high school.
