2026 Klamath Promise Graduation Sensation

The 11th annual Klamath Promise Graduation Sensation Parade and Party in the Park is scheduled for Wednesday, May 27, 2026, with the parade starting at 12noon on Main Street, Klamath Falls. All graduating high school seniors from Klamath County, as well as some from Northern California and Lake County, will join with their Kindergarten classes to parade down Main Street. High school seniors will then gather in Veterans’ Park for an award distribution of scholarships and gift cards of over $1,000 per minute! Every graduating senior present is eligible to win, whether they plan to enter the workforce, trades, military, college, or are undecided!

Family, friends, supporters, and businesses are encouraged to line the sidewalks of Main Street at 12noon on May 27 and cheer on the success of our community’s students! Klamath Promise is actively seeking award donors and event volunteers!  All award funds are locally raised and 100% goes to the student.  Over 90 individuals and organizations volunteer to make this event possible for our kids.  Please contact klamath_promise@soesd.k12.or.us or call 541-776-8560 extension 2119
