This message is regarding important information for Graduation. The families of our graduating students will have the opportunity to enter a lottery for an extra guest pass for the graduation ceremony. Individual letters will be available for students to pick up in Student Services Friday, June 1, 2018. The letter explains that we have an updated calculation of graduates participating in the ceremony, which means that we will have approximately 100 extra guest seats. It also explains the procedure required if you wish to have a chance of obtaining one additional guest pass. The letter must be signed by parents, dated and returned to the Student Services office by Friday, June 8, 2018 by 3:00 p.m. Families who receive an extra pass will find it included in the grad package. The Graduation packages will be ready for pickup in the Student Services office beginning at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday June 14, 2018. The package contains information regarding grad rehearsal and ceremony, one white pass for the graduate and three blue embossed passes for guests. Graduates must sign for their package and may be required to show their student card. They will not be permitted to pick packages up for other students. Students with outstanding extra-curricular fees, textbooks, library books and/or other materials will have to clear these issues with the Office before receiving their package.
