This year’s graduating class of 2021 is beginning their final months at Gorham High School (GHS) and parents and seniors alike are hoping to get one more high school game played or applaud their last school play before the year is over.

This class of seniors has missed out on so many events that they have looked forward to for years, which is why the Project Graduation Fundraising Committee is determined to provide a memorable celebration for this year’s seniors.

Typically, project graduation is an all-night parent chaperoned celebration that is held directly after the graduation ceremony. The chemical-free event includes food, games, music, activities, entertainment, and lots of fun for graduating seniors organized and run by parents and other volunteers. While this year’s celebration may not be exactly like year’s past, the Committee is working hard to give the Class of 2021 the celebration they deserve.

The Committee continues to organize fundraising events and activities to raise funds, but the goal of $100 per senior seems far reached without the help of local friends and businesses helping with monetary contributions as they have in the past.

Ram pride continues to be strong and these seniors have represented Gorham well over the years in sports, arts, and volunteering around the community. Any support is greatly appreciated to help give them one last gathering as the Class of 2021.
