Making the Grad List:

1. Requirements: All courses required to graduate, including religion, are either completed OR you are currently registered in them AND you are passing them. This means that you have the potential to graduate. Any course you are taking by module, whether it be here, PASS, REV online, MUST be 75% complete by April 30th. PowerSchool will show how much of the course you have completed and your grade. If you do not have 75% of the course completed, your name will not appear on the grad list.

 

2. School fees AND the grad fee of $85 MUST be paid.

Grad List Information:

There will be 2 grad lists posted. Your name must appear on the grad list to be to attend commencement (cap and gown ceremony). If you do not make the first list, you must make the second list, or you will not be allowed to attend commencement. YOU MUST HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO GRADUATE IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS LIST. If you are failing a course required for graduation you must get this grade to passing. (You must have all the required courses listed on page 1.)

Grad List 1: May 29th

Grad List 2: June 12th

What should I be doing NOW to make sure I graduate/make the grad list?

1. Check your number of credits earned so far. You should have around 75 credits earned to date.

2. Check the courses you are registered in to make sure you have the requirements listed above AND make sure you will have over 100 credits by the end of the year.

3. I am worried I don’t, what can I do? See Mr. Horpyniuk or Mrs. Page to go through your credits and schedule.
