SENIOR SIGNING DAY

This event is an opportunity for seniors to publicly declare their post-secondary school or program of choice. Each senior is allowed to 2 guests. No exceptions will be made. The guests can arrive no later than 10:50a and will enter in the gym entrance (same doors we use for basketball games). 

Seniors MUST arrive at school during normal school arrival hours for a senior breakfast + class picture + senior awards. 

Attire: Seniors can wear jeans or bottoms of their choosing but MUST wear tennis shoes or heels. No slippers, slides, or crocs are permitted. All seniors will receive a Senior Signing Day T-shirt to wear for this event.

GRADUATION REHEARSAL

This is a closed event and is ONLY for the graduates. All non-GWC staff or non-graduates MUST wait in the car or outside of the facility during the rehearsal. Rehearsal will begin promptly at 1:00p and there will be so much to accomplish. This event is an opportunity for seniors to get a feel of the space they will graduate in, pick up their cap & gowns and learn important information about what to expect the day of graduation. Any senior who owes the school money for any reason will not receive their cap & gown at rehearsal. In the event that this occurs, seniors can pay for items and pick up their cap & gown the following day (Weds, May 14th). 

See Financial Obligations section for more information on what MUST be done in order to receive your cap & gown.
