Graduation, Class of 2025

Class of 2025:

Hello, Grad! Your first, and arguably most important, task right now is to ensure that you are on track to meet all graduation requirements this school year.  Cross-reference the courses on your TT against the graduation requirements page from your June report card to confirm that you will meet all requirements by June, 2025.

Your second task is to ensure that you are scheduled to take any outstanding, required secondary school prerequisite courses, as required, for your post-secondary plan.  If your post-secondary dream program requires a specific course, it must be on your course plan (either in class or eLearning or Night School), or already completed and on your grad summary, in order for your application to be considered.  Required courses are a must;  recommended courses are a great idea and your application will be considered even if you've decided to not study the recommended course(s).

Please ensure that you are checking the Gr. 12 D2L shell for announcements and information specific to Gr. 12 students.  Also, continue to check the subsites for information about post-secondary research, applications, funding, and more.

This subsite will have more graduation information in the spring.
