Memory Lane Poster
Memory Lane is a display of 11 x 17 posters for Arcadia Seniors to view during the initial event at the Project Graduation Night Party which will be held at the high school the evening of graduation. It’s time to start collecting favorite pictures of your senior with family and friends. There will be a Memory Lane collection box in the Arcadia HS office and another at the home of Juliet Straker (5932 E Calle Tuberia) from May 8 to May 22. Our goal is to have every Arcadia senior represented at Memory Lane. Posters can be as simple as a picture with a hand-written note, or a collage of a lifetime of memories. Remember that this is a surprise from you to your senior, so be creative!
Please follow these instructions:
1. Please use an 11 x 17 poster as we want these to be uniform in size.
2. Assemble photocopied pictures and messages on the paper. You do not have to be an artist to put together treasured memories for your senior. Scrapbook items and stickers also work well.
3. You can include the student’s name anywhere on the front of the poster, but you must write the student’s full name on the back upper right corner of the poster.
4. We strongly encourage you to have your finished poster laminated. Staples and OfficeMax can do this for under $2.50 per poster protecting this keepsake forever.
5. The final deadline is May 22. Start early as this deadline will sneak up on you
6. Graduates take their posters home with them at the end of the party or they can be picked up at the Arcadia office the following week. Please note, they will only be held for one week in the office.
