Thanks go to the more than 80 Branford businesses that donated wonderful items, gift cards, and delicious food to Branford High School Project Graduation Celebration for the Class of 2016. The graduates enjoyed the variety of gifts that ranged from restaurant gift cards, beauty and spa items, fitness memberships, beautiful flower arrangements, jewelry, and so many other wonderful items.

Project Graduation is a substance free event held each year following graduation for the graduates to attend for a free, fun, safe evening with their peers. The students look forward to this event for years. A great deal of planning goes into this under the direction of Dawn Perrotti, who selflessly donates hundreds of hours to make this event happen for our seniors.

I am proud to be a resident of such a generous community. I thank everyone for supporting Branford High School Project Graduation.
