Information for 2021 Graduates
The Grad Class Executive is busy planning socially distanced activities for our Class of 2021. All activities require masks, follow public health guidelines, and require an approved operational plan.
Thursday, May 6th: Grad Class Movie Night at the Cineplex, East Saint John. Sign up with the Grad Class Executive in the main hallway next week to reserve your seat! This is a FREE event, thanks to your fundraising!
Stay tuned for a Paint Night, Timbertop Adventures outing, and more!
Class of 2021 maroon & white masks: The Grad Class Executive will be taking orders for custom masks to coordinate with your grad gown and grad fashions! Place your order with the Grad Exec in the main hallway next week! Masks are $7; however your fundraising has lowered this cost to $5. So far funds raised have gone towards a Grad bowling night, a birthday party-themed event, and some special Grad Swag coming soon!
Graduation will take place on Thursday, June 24. Similar to last year, these will be individual diploma presentations and will not involve a large group ceremony. Details will be sent out at a later date. In late-May, students will have the opportunity to select the time they would like to receive their diploma. Available times will be between 1:00pm – 7:00pm.
