Please visit our school website to access the most up to date information on Graduation 2022.  Graduation information

The Graduation ceremony will take place on Thursday June 9th at 6:00pm in the Energy Centre arena.  Students will need to arrive at school by 5:00pm in order to pick up their cap and gown.  

Graduation fees can be paid on SchoolCash online.  The $60 fee covers: the cost of the facility rental, the $10 sitting fee for grad photos, the keeper gown, hat and tassel, as well as other incidental costs.

The graduation photo dates are November 30, December 1 and December 2, 2021.   We would like all students to have their photo taken at this time.  These are the only photos that are used in the graduation composite that will be on display in the school.  The photos are also used in the graduation ceremony. The cost of the basic sitting fee is covered in your grad fees.  If you would like the extended sitting fee which allows you to order photos for your personal use there will be an additional $15 fee.    With the additional package you will receive 16-20 proofs and the use of a cap, gown and props.   You can sign up for a photo session using this link; Lifetouch

Grade 12s received their credential reports in class on Monday, October 25th. This outlines their progress towards graduation. With that update, students also received a handout explaining how to read the report, requirements for making the grad list, how to change their email in MyPass, how to join Google Classroom for Grad 2022, and how to set up an appointment with me. Please ask your student to see their credential report. We have attached the handout they received to this message.

The Graduation Parent committee would like to invite you to follow their Facebook page. 

The next Graduation Parent committee meeting will take place on November 17, 2021, at 6:00pm.  The link to the meeting will be sent to all participants in the Graduation Parent committee.  If you would like to join this group please send me an email and I forward your contact information on to them.
