First off we want to thank all of you for your continued patience as we navigate these uncharted waters. June 9th is not graduation.

Diploma Distribution (Must have a photo ID)
As we said, this isn’t graduation. But, we recognize that many families would like to have the diplomas on the 9th, for photo opportunities, etc… If we are able to have an in-person commencement in the summer, we’ll ask you to bing these diplomas with you.

Chrome Book Return / Hot Spot
If you have a chrome book and/or hot spot, you must return it in order to receive your diploma or academic distinction.
Please write your name and student ID number on a piece of paper, and tape it to the top of the Chrome Book and/or hot spot.
Book & Calculator Return
Bring any books, calculators, or school property you may still have.
Cap and Gown Photo Opportunity
We want to give students an opportunity to have their picture taken in the cap, gown, and any academic distinction they may have. When you drive to school.
Make sure you take your gown out of the package ahead of time and hang it up. This will get the wrinkles out.
Put on your cap and gown BEFORE you leave the house.
When you get to the teacher parking lot, DO NOT EXIT YOUR VEHICLE until a staff member indicates you may. We will give you directions on where to go for your picture and returns.
Cap and Gown Rental Return
If you rented your cap and gown, we need to collect those from you after you take your photo. When and if we have an in-person graduation, we will return these to you for the purposes of the commencement ceremony.
Personal Items Left in Classrooms
Does your student need to get their personal property out of a classroom? If so, please complete the form below. Please note, this shouldn't be to pick up general/disposable items, like pens and paper. Please limit this to necessary items such as glasses, headphones, technology, etc. Any items that you choose not to pick up will be donated to the teacher/classroom.
Thank you so much.
