Wolves Weekly Update - Senior Edition
Dear Students and Families in the Class of 2021:

We have enjoyed having many seniors back on campus for the last four weeks, and we look forward to seeing the rest at the Senior Celebration on June 9 and Graduation on June 10. We want to extend our gratitude to the Class of 2021 for helping us hold this school together during the Covid pandemic. We can’t wait to thank you in person, congratulate you on your accomplishments and celebrate your next steps in life.

Chris Bede, Principal
Important Graduation Information

We are excited that the district was able to reserve T-Mobile for the Class of 2021 Graduation. Due to COVID, T-Mobile has currently set graduation seating so that each graduate will have at least two tickets. Based on social distancing guidelines T-Mobile has seating arranged in pods of six and only two households may be in one pod. In order to maximize seating, for now it is necessary for students to sit with their families. We will update you if this changes.

It is possible that ticket allocations could increase before graduation. We won't know this until closer to graduation, but possible factors include:

  • Number of students who opt out of the in-person ceremony
  • Increase in stadium seating capacity*
  • Opening a "vaccine only" section*

*These items are determined by T-Mobile.

This year Grad Images will be taking graduation photos at the ceremony. Following the graduation ceremony at T-Mobile Park, families and graduates will be able to gather at the Plaza across from T-Mobile. Grad Images will have a photo station set up with an Eastlake backdrop where families and graduates can have their photographs taken. In addition to the photo station, Grad Images will have a photographer taking live action shots at the Plaza. These photographs will be available for families to purchase
***Important Graduation Survey***

Please complete this survey by Friday (5/14) so we can determine the number of students participating in our in-person graduation at T-Mobile Park.
PTSA Senior Celebrations

Class of 2021 Party

The Eastlake PTSA is excited to announce that they will be hosting an end-of-the-year party for the Class of 2021! The party will take place outside on the Eastlake campus on Wednesday, June 9th right after the senior Moving Up Assembly and Tunnel of Tears. During the party we will have multiple food trucks serving lunch to the seniors while they enjoy an afternoon of hanging out with their classmates. This event is free for all SENIOR students. We’re excited to have the chance to celebrate this year’s senior class!   

Senior Convocation

This year’s Convocation ceremony will be virtual since we aren’t able to hold large indoor gatherings. The pre-recorded ceremony will include performances and speeches by Eastlake seniors, a staff speaker, and clips sent in by members of the senior class. If your senior wants to be featured in one of the senior clips, please visit the SeniorClips page for more information. The deadline for submission has been extended to May 21st. The PTSA will be emailing out a link for the event to senior families on Wednesday, June 9th.

Senior Slideshow

The PTSA is creating a slideshow featuring the senior class. A link to the slideshow will be emailed to senior families on Wednesday, June 9th. Please make sure to send in your child’s photos ASAP! The deadline for photos has been extended to May 21st.  

  • Place the name of the senior student in the email subject line
  • Name the image files with the senior's name (i.e. JohnSmithBaby.jpg, JohnSmithSenior.jpg)

  • Email to seniorphotos@ehsptsa.org
