In light of our circumstances, we are asking for your financial support again to help celebrate our graduates of Oilfields High School. We would like to put the lawn signs up in Black Diamond that we had last year. We are asking for $250 from you to help share the cost of the signs. You can make the cheques payable to Foothills School Division and mail them or drop them off to the office at Oilfields High School attention: Katie Hein. I understand that this may be more than what we asked for last year, but we have more graduates this year. We appreciate any support you can give us in order to help recognize the significant achievement of our graduates despite not being able to give them a traditional formal ceremony. If you have any further questions, please feel free to email myself or Mr. Musgrove.
