College & Career Information

Senior Check Out

Prior to Cap & Gown pick up, seniors will:

1. Receive an email from our Media Specialist indicating what Media Center items are checked out and need to be returned along with any school based fees/fines.
2. Receive an email from our Technology Specialist indicating what technology items are checked out and need to be returned along with any technology fees.
3. Seniors will receive a set of dates indicating that they can drop off items/pay fees in the Media Center. If all items are returned/paid early, they'll receive their fast pass in order to "skip the line" when picking up cap & gowns.
4. Seniors can also return all items on Cap & Gown pick up day but should expect to wait in line in order to return all materials & resolve all fees.

*Seniors can stop by the Media Center now in order to determine what items they have out and what fees will need to be paid*

Baccalaureate Information

What is Baccalaureate?

The term refers to a non-denominational ceremony held a few days before high school or college graduation. Unlike the massive commencement exercises held in stadiums or arenas, baccalaureate ceremonies offer a quieter, more intimate opportunity to pause and reflect on this rite of passage, hear a keynote speaker (faculty member) and student speakers offer advice to the graduating class and enjoy students' musical talents.

• Date: Thursday, May 18, 2023
