Cap and Gown Information

  • Grads must be at the Rawlinson Centre at 12:00 for the rehearsal.
  • Parents are free to stay at the Rawlinson Centre for that time.
  • Grads will get their Grad Gown, Hat, Tassel and Stoll at the Rawlinson Centre.
  • Grads should wear something dressy under their gowns.
  • Examples of this would be (male) dress pants, black socks, dress shoes and a collared shirt and tie or a (female) summer dress and shoes. Be mindful that the bottom third of your leg will be showing. The gowns are black and gold- so be mindful of the colors you are wearing under the gown. Hair will be covered with a grad cap- so long hair may be worn down or in a low ponytail or braid.

We reminded students that any students under the influence substances may not be allowed to participate in the graduating ceremony. This is a forever moment, and we understand how our actions could potentially ruin the day for others.  We appreciate your support in helping all our graduating class have a safe day that is remembered fondly.
