Churchill Class of 2021 and Families,
Churchill’s 2021 graduation ceremony is Friday, June 11, 2020, at 7:00 p.m. at the Hult Center’s Silva Concert Hall. (*The 2021 graduation ceremony may be canceled, rescheduled, or relocated depending on public health conditions.*)
June will be here in the blink of an eye, but there is still a lot to do before it arrives. To help you stay on track, you will receive the Graduation at a G’Lance newsletter periodically throughout the school year. These newsletters will be posted at chs.4j.lane.edu/graduation along with a calendar of graduation events and a list of contacts to help you along the way.
We were overjoyed that so many of you joined us for the senior meeting on November 5. We can hardly believe that that was a whole month ago. Links to the presentation and a recording of the meeting are posted on the Graduation! page.
The first deadlines are quickly approaching. Keep reading for details.
Best wishes,
Churchill Faculty and Staff

Early Graduates (Graduating before June)
After you graduate, you are unenrolled from Churchill and 4J. Your contacts are removed from our communications lists and your 4J email, Google Drive, and other services that use your 4J sign-in are no longer accessible.
Walking in Graduation
Early graduates (graduating before term 3) who want to walk in the graduation ceremony and receive news and updates about graduation, please contact Jill Reents at reents_ji@4j.lane.edu or 541-790-5112. She will add your name to the graduation checklist and your preferred contact information to a special distribution list for the Graduation at a G’Lance.
Saving your Data
Before you graduate, copy any files and data from your 4J accounts that you wish to keep to a personal device, external drive, or personal Google Drive. For instructions on using Google Takeout to download your 4J Google data, visit 4j.lane.edu/technology/ns/googletakeout.
If you are using your 4J email for your Naviance account, you must change it to a personal email to avoid losing access to Naviance.
Yearbook Portraits Due December 13
Senior yearbook portraits are due to Don Squires by December 13. Torso shots in portrait orientation are preferred. For more information, or to submit your portrait, email Mr. Squires at squires_d@4j.lane.edu.
Note: Senior quotes are due at the end of January and baby pictures at the end of February. More information will be shared as the deadlines approach.
Grad Party
Each year, parents of seniors organize the Graduation Party. The school has not heard from senior parents this year. Now is the time to get started. If you are interested in organizing the Graduation Party, please communicate with your fellow parents. The school would like to know who is organizing the party so we can share your contact information and help you get the word out.
The Graduation Party is a community-sponsored event organized by parents of Churchill students and funded by donations. Churchill High School and Eugene School District 4J do not provide financial, administrative, or clerical support for this event. Liability is the responsibility of the organizers of the event.
