• Please open your graduation items and confirm that you have the correct size. It is also good to take it out of the packaging so it can fluff out and be ready for graduation. If you have not ordered your supplies, this is a reminder that you must have the proper graduation items from Rhodesgraduation ONLY to participate in our ceremony.
• All academic requirements for graduation must be met by May 15th in order to participate in our graduation ceremony on May 28th.
• If you owe any money to the school, all bills must be paid before receiving graduation tickets.
