Digital Filmmaking
Wednesday, May 13th
Greeting Seniors and Parents,
All Sequoia Seniors were "uploaded" to the Marching Order website (Virtual Graduation), and all Seniors were sent an email to their school-issued address with directions for how to register on the Marching Order Website. Once you register on this site you will be able to upload your picture with cap and gown, and a short personal video. The deadline for submissions is this Thursday, 05/14.
Obviously, this is the first time we are doing this, so we are figuring it out as we go. I will know more details tomorrow, but you do need to register immediately, and create your photo--video is optional. Upload must be on Thursday or before. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you and congratulations to graduating Sequoia Seniors!
