Project Graduation Activities and Games
Project Graduation is a tradition for many schools across the country, providing an all night, alcohol and drug-free celebration for students right after graduation. Leaving a memorable and lasting impression for years to come, Project Graduation is all about having fun with friends.
Don’t miss our 10 fun, last-minute ideas for your Project Graduation night:
-
Drum Circle - Everything from buckets, to hand drums even pots and pans makes for a raucous time students will love! Ask a musical volunteer to lead the group with a beat to follow and encourage students to join in and add to the rhythm.
- Glow in the Dark Party - Hand out glow sticks, glow necklaces and bracelets that add a nightclub touch to your festivities and dance party.
- Kareoke Competition – Offer prizes to singers who encourage the most applause from the audience.
- Senior Viewing – Screen the Senior slideshow or a movie created from the students’ past year
- Bonfire - Weather and safety permitting, coordinate an outside bonfire overseen by a professional where kids can chill or even roast marshmellows.
- Graffiti Wall – Cover one wall in your venue with bulletin board paper, and provide sharpies for students to write messages and their favorite quotes from teachers
- Door Prizes – Connect with local businesses to offer big prizes like iPods and Kindles to raffle winners who attend
- Fortune Teller – Bring in a community fortune teller, psychic or tarot card reader who can offer innocent glimpses into students' futures
- Yearbook Sign – Encourage students to bring their yearbooks and provide pens for them to sign one another’s throughout the night; have a designated table where they can drop off and pick their yearbooks back up
- Photo Booth – String up a colorful sheet, curtain or banner for a photo booth; oversized props create a fun space for students to take pictures with one another – think jumbo sunglasses and fake mustaches
