SBA Project Graduation 2017 Dear St. Benedict at Auburndale Parents: Friday, May 12, 2017 is Graduation for St. Benedict Seniors. A tradition for the St. Benedict seniors is a drug and alcohol free “lock-in” given by the senior parents. Over 95% of our seniors participate each year and they have a wonderful time. We rent out Incredible Pizza and they have unlimited play time, as well as unlimited pizza, drinks and snacks. Whether your child loves go-karts, bowling, putt-putt, laser tag or lots of video games-there is something for everyone. Each student receives a goodie bag as well as super door prizes that have included 32-inch flat screen TV’s, Microwaves and Gift Cards to name a few. It will also be the last time they will all be together as a group.
Ticket price is $175. RESERVATIONS MUST BE IN NOW so we can order the items that the students receive in their “goodie bag.” Please complete the following form and return to school with your check!
Sincerely, Amy Iovinelli

St. Benedict Project Graduation Rules & Permission Form SBA Project Graduation (PG) is held on the night of graduation at Incredible Pizza from 11:15 pm-5:30 am. Incredible Pizza is located at 1245 Germantown Parkway Cordova, 309-3132. The purpose of SBA Project Graduation is to have a drug and alcohol-free evening of fun and fellowship one last time. RULES: If graduate arrives and is suspected to be “under the influence” (either alcohol or drugs) and the student fails a Breathalyzer test, the parents will be called and the student will not be admitted to Project Graduation regardless of the paid admission. ▪ We strongly suggest that parents drop off their student and pick them up due to the long hours of fun, they will be very tired. ▪ No guests are allowed; only members of the SBA Class of 2017 who have paid. ▪ Check-in is between 11:15 pm - 12:00 am. No one will be able to enter after 12:00 am. ▪ No backpacks or large bags. All items brought must be checked in. The less you bring with you the better. Storage is limited. ▪ No one will be allowed to leave early without a signed parental form. If you want to leave, a parent will be notified and you will not be allowed to re-enter. You will not be eligible for door prizes if you leave early. ▪ There will be food and drink provided throughout the event. ▪ PG ends at 5:30 am. If you do not feel able to drive home, please notify any of the chaperones and we will call a parent to come pick you up. Any questions or if you need to reach us during the event: Amy Iovinelli (901.849.9644)
