    Graduation Information 

  • Majority of information shared with seniors is done through Senior meetings & senior social studies classes or if you are NMSC or RUNNING START, it would be during your assigned HOMEROOM presentations or you will have to meet with your A-Z alpha counselor.

    Running Start: Please check in with Mr. Bonaldo EVERY Wednesday he hosts a check in for Running Start students.  

    These informative LARGE GROUP presentations are VERY IMPORTANT to provide you added support & direction during senior year.  We DO NOT HAVE TIME to provide every senior an individualized personal re-cap of what was missed, we are working with over 1,900 students this year grades 9-12. Replies to your questions that were answered during these sessions will NOT be prioritized to respond to.  PLEASE make every effort to attend these presentations or find a peer to share the information you may have missed.  

  • Sept-Oct-Nov:
