IMPORTANT GRAD INFORMATION:
· Be sure that you’ve completed your PSI online form if you are planning to apply to a post-secondary institution. An early offer of admission does NOT mean that you can skip this step as this is how post-secondary institutions confirm that you have graduated at the end of the year. Remember: it is your responsibility to ensure that your transcripts are sent to post-secondary institutions by their deadlines. Read letters and e-mails from PSIs carefully to ensure you don’t miss a step! · DRY GRAD If you are a 2017 Grad and have purchased a ticket to attend dry grad – you need to pick up the “Safe ride home” package (pink) in the office. If you have also purchased a guest ticket for dry grad – be sure to take a guest package also (green). Both packages are on the front desk. These forms need to be returned to the office ASAP – you will not receive any of your Grad tickets until these forms are received by Mrs. Shamro.
