Class of 2027: The Senior Home Stretch 🎓

Congratulations, Seniors and Parents! We have reached the final chapters of the 2026-2027 school year. To ensure everyone crosses the finish line smoothly, we’ve compiled the ultimate guide to the upcoming events, deadlines, and graduation requirements.
Please review this timeline carefully—there's a lot happening!
 
 

Senior Prom Details

  • Date: TBD
  • Tickets: On sale TBD. Purchase via the 5-Star App (card) or Finance Office (cash).
  • Pricing: $ with ASB card / $ without.
  • Guests: If your guest is not a Santana Senior, you must obtain a guest pass from Mrs. Millum’s desk. Guests 21+ require Vice Principal approval.

Chromebooks & Fines

Before you can walk the stage, you have to square up with the school.

The Chromebook Choice

  • Buy it: You can purchase your Chromebook and charger for $20 at the Finance Office. You must bring the device with you to purchase.
  • Return it: If not purchasing, return it to the Library by TBD at 3:30 PM.
  • Data Warning: GUHSD Google accounts deactivate July 31st. Use Google Takeout to save your files, or they will be lost to the digital abyss forever.

Pre-Graduation Check-Off

  • Clear Fines: Check your "Destiny" account or the list in the Finance Office.
  • Textbooks: Return these to the Library, not your teachers.
  • Consequence: Diplomas and Cap/Gown sets will be held if you have outstanding fines or unreturned materials.

🎓 The Big Day: Graduation Information

Thursday, June 3, 2027 | 6:00 PM | Santana Stadium

Attendance & Arrival

  • Mandatory Rehearsal: 8:30 AM on June 3rd. No rehearsal, no walking!
  • Ceremony Arrival: Seniors must be in the Gym by 5:00 PM.
  • Guest Entry: Gates open at 4:00 PM. No tickets required; seating is first-come, first-served.

Dress Code & Belongings

  • Attire: Nice slacks, dress shirts, dresses, or pantsuits.
  • Footwear: No spike heels (they sink into the turf!). Flats or wedges are your friends.
  • Prohibited Items: No flowers or balloons during the ceremony. No purses or cell phones—leave them with your parents or in the car.

Caps & Gowns

  • Gowns are RENTALS: You must return your gown (and rented cap/tassel) immediately after the ceremony in the Large Quad to receive your diploma.
  • Decorating: You may decorate your cap only if you purchased it. Decorations must be school-appropriate.
A Note on Behavior: We want this to be a dignified celebration. Students bringing squirt guns, beach balls, or engaging in disruptive behavior will be removed and their diplomas withheld pending a meeting with the Principal. Let's keep it classy, Sultans!

📸 Graduation Extras

  • Photos: Cherished Memories will capture your moment on stage.
  • Live Stream: For family far away, a link will be posted on the Santana Website on graduation day.
  • Grad Nite: This is a PTSA-sponsored event. For questions, contact sultansgradnight@gmail.com.
We are so proud of the Class of 2027. Let's make these final weeks unforgettable!
