(September 29, 2026) — Project Graduation is an all-night celebration for students held the night of graduation. This event is hosted by many high schools across the nation to provide graduates with a safe place to celebrate in a substance-free environment. In the 34 years that this event has occurred at Haddam-Killingworth High School, there have been ZERO fatalities involving our new high school graduates on graduation night.
The Project Graduation Committee is busy planning a fabulous celebration for our 2027 graduates, and we would love for you to be part of it, even if you do not have a student in this class. There are many ways to help, including chaperoning or set-up, take-home or in-person decorating, or by supporting a fundraiser.
We consist of a group of HKHS parents and we would love to meet you! Meetings are on the second Wednesday of the month in the HKHS Lower Media Center at 7:00 p.m. Even if you can’t commit to every meeting, feel free to pop in to say hi. We are always welcoming new members to share their ideas and talents with us. Questions? Contact hkprojectgraduation@gmail.com. The meeting schedule is as follows:
