Senior Rosecutting
                      86th Celebration!
                   Tuesday, May 18, 2021
                  9:00am in the LHS Arena
All seniors are invited to attend the beautiful Rosecutting Ceremony
for the Class of 2021. Rosecutting has been a Lewisville tradition
since 1935. This ceremony is very special to seniors as they show
their unity and enjoy their last time together as an entire class
before graduating. Each senior will be able to select what friends
they want to sit with during Rosecutting since graduation is in
alphabetical order. All seniors are connected by a long maroon
ribbon tied to their rose. Rosecutting symbolizes the separation
from their class and high school as they move on to the next stage
of life. Seniors will go to the stage with their groups of friends and
cut the ribbon that connects them. Unfortunately, this year we will
not be allowed to have parents/guests but will let you know how to
watch. The ceremony will end with a senior slide show
presentation.

In person Seniors will be released from 1st period classes at 8:30am. Virtual
students may enter through the Arena (Activities Center) Entrance and will
need to show their Skyward account or school ID. All participating Seniors
will need to bring $1 to participate to cover the cost of the roses and ribbons.
Bring $1 cash with you. We will not have change.

Seniors must be in the arena NO LATER than 8:30am dressed in nice attire.

A Final Senior Memory Slide Show will be shown so please send any senior
  pictures with senior friends by May 14 to: (we will have yearbook portraits so no
                  individual pics) rosecutting2021@gmail.com
