Grad Events
School Sponsored Grad Events
Safety is of paramount importance during school sponsored events. Therefore, all school sponsored grad events are drug free (no alcohol, narcotics, vapour products or tobacco). We request the cooperation of grads and parents in making certain none are consumed before or during these events. Any parent or grad doing so will be required to leave an event, will not be allowed to enter an event and no refund will be given.
