Dear Senior Class Families,
The baccalaureate ceremony will be held on May 24th at 4:00 PM. We are looking
forward to this special tradition and wanted to share some details regarding the
significance of the event.
The Baccalaureate is an intimate, non-denominational service designed to honor our
graduates. Unlike the formal graduation ceremony, this event focuses on providing
students and their families with a time for reflection and spiritual meaning as they
prepare for their next chapter in life.
Why do High Schools Have a Baccalaureate?
1. Marking the end of students' academic careers
Graduation is a significant milestone for most students. The baccalaureate is an
opportunity for the community to show students support while also
celebrating their intellectual and spiritual development.
2. Giving students the courage to move on
A baccalaureate ceremony is significant for students who may feel frightened
about the future, as it challenges them to think about their future holistically
and with joy.
3. Offering a blessing
Baccalaureates are an opportunity to bless graduates as they move to their
next phase of life—celebrating who they have been while reminding them of
the support surrounding them as they move into the future.
Attire for the afternoon should be what you would typically wear for a religious service
or a special occasion. Please note that several photographers will be present to
capture moments with the seniors to be shared with you later.
We look forward to celebrating this milestone with you.
