Hello Parents and Graduates -
Parents be reminded that unless all monies are turned into the school, your graduate will not receive their diploma or report card. This includes tuition, library books or fees owed, sports fees, service hour fees, etc. Please make sure to contact Andrea Bonnevier (for tuition and service hour money), Kim Sikes (for library books or fees) and/or Mrs. Henderson (for athletic money) if you are uncertain about money owed. Private high schools will need report cards to verify the completion of your graduates' 8th grade requirements.
Graduates have a retreat on Wednesday, May 23rd. We will be here at school in the Resource center. The retreat will last most of the day. Students do not have to bring lunch - it will be provided for them. They can have free dress - please adhere to the dress code.
On Thursday, May 24th students will be graduating!!! Graduates do not need to be at school until 9:30 a.m. and they must report to 8th grade. All graduates must bring their robes (on a hanger) to wear at the 10:00 a.m. mass. After the mass, students will bring their robes to 8th grade and hang them on the hanger they brought in the morning. They will then proceed to the brunch in the gym. After the brunch, graduates go home and do not need to return to 8th grade until 5:30 p.m. to prepare for the ceremony. After the ceremony, graduates return to 8th grade for the last time to pick up their report cards, graduation tassels, and poetry anthologies.
On a personal note, I would like to thank you for all the support you have given me these past three years with your children. If you are leaving St. Robert I wish you and your family many blessings. Remember you always have a family here at St. Robert to share good times and bad with. For those of you who will be returning, I hope you have a very restful and enjoyable summer.
Remember.....just breathe
Ms. Leslie Hoffman
