Important Dates
May 2 - Senior Decision Day: Annandale will celebrate National Decision Day on May 2. At this event, we will recognize our seniors and the different paths they will take after graduation, whether they have decided to attend a 4-year college, community college, join the military, workforce, or take a gap year. The celebration will be held during all lunch periods in the senior courtyard, where students can enjoy snacks, music, and take pictures with their peers.
May 9 - Senior Prom, 8-11pm: Prom will be held Friday, May 9 from 8:00-11:00pm at The River View at Occoquan. Each senior may purchase up to two (2) tickets via myschoolbucks. Save $10 if you purchase your tickets today! No tickets will be sold at the door.
If students would like to bring a guest who does not attend Annandale High School, they must pick up a guest form from the front office and return it to the class of 2025 administrator Hanna Langstein (main office) for approval. Students should not purchase tickets until the form is approved. No middle school students or guests 21 or older will be permitted.
IMPORTANT: Students must pay outstanding obligations before prom tickets can be approved. Students will not be allowed to enter prom if they have outstanding obligations. These obligations can be paid in MySchoolBucks. Here are instructions on how to access MySchoolBucks.com. Maximum 2 tickets per student. If buying a guest ticket for another AHS student, you must "Add Student" to your profile and purchase using their school ID. If purchasing for a non-AHS guest, purchase both tickets using your school ID#. Guest forms must be submitted to the front office no later than Monday, May 5.
May 15 & 16 - Senior Survey: Each year, every senior is required to complete the Senior Survey. This is how Student Services celebrates the decisions of our graduates and ensures we have information on where to send final transcripts. Counselors will be coming to every senior English class on May 15 & 16 to help students complete the Senior Survey. Please do not complete the Senior Survey before these dates. Students absent on the day of their English class will receive an email notification about make-up days and times for filling out the survey. Note: It is required that all seniors complete the survey by May 25. Seniors who have not completed the survey will be unable to pick up their cap and gown for graduation. If you have questions or concerns, please email Viri Acosta.
