Grad Cap/Gown Pick Up
Graduation is getting closer! Grade 12 students will be able to pick up their graduation cap and gown starting Wednesday, June 7 at 10:15 a.m. (after Block 1) until 3:30 p.m. and again on Thursday, June 8 starting at 10:15 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
- Caps and gowns must be picked up by the student and cannot be picked up by friends.
- Students must be on the current grad list to be able to pick up their cap and gown.
All students will wear their caps and gowns for Graduation Mass on Friday, June 9 so will need to bring them that morning. Students who were unable to pick up their cap and gown prior to Graduation Mass will be provided their cap and gown the morning of Graduation Mass but will have to return them at the conclusion of the Mass if they are not on the graduation list. We do not have extra caps and gowns so students need to make sure they do not lose them before graduation on June 29.
