FIRST Signing Day
2024 FIRST Signing Day - May 20th, 2024
In May of 2016, Team Appreciate created FIRST Signing Day (FSD) with 30 of our graduating team members. Inspired by the tradition observed by sports teams and athletes, FSD has become a national initiative where graduating seniors in FIRST sign a letter of intent officially announcing their plans after high school. On May 21st, 2020, we collaborated with FIRST HQ to host a virtual FSD event to celebrate over 2000 graduating FIRST students worldwide.
On Signing Day, be sure to take pictures to post on social media with the hashtags #FIRSTSigningDay and #FSD2024 and tagging @FIRSTSigningDay. This year, we are extending the FIRST Signing Day celebration to TikTok, so follow @FIRSTSigningDay to stay updated!
