The First Senior Giveaway Days Were a Big Hit
On March 23rd and 24th, our first annual Senior Giveaway Days created a buzz. It was exciting to have Seniors lining up to get their free Project Grad t-shirts and Frost treats while underclassmen watched with anticipation of what they would enjoy in a future year. We were scrapping the bottom of our Frost supplies on Day 1, unfortunately running out in the last few minutes!
Students have already been seen wearing the t-shirts and ticket sales are now seeing a spike. About 390 t-shirts were given out, that means we reached 85% of the Senor class (460 graduates-to-be in all). Seniors who did not pick up their t-shirt can get one on April 24th at Senor Assembly.

Jazzed Up Raffle Ticket Sales
On April 4th we gave our car raffle fundraiser a boost. With Jim Click's help, we showed off this year's amazing prize car (see above, one of only 1,964 made) at the Oro Valley Marketplace. Many thanks to the IRHS Jazz Band -- their fantastic music brought attention to the car and our raffle ticket sales.
Project Grad IRHS will receive 100% of the ticket price of every ticket purchased from us -- and you get a real chance of driving away with a rare 2015 GT coupe modeled after the original Mustang sold in April 1964. Contact Delano to buy 1 ticket for $25 or 5 for $100.
