Seniors! December 17 Deadline
If you have not ordered your Graduation Package, please order it before the deadline of December 17, 2021. The senior Graduation Package includes:
- Cambridge custom graduation gown
- Stole with the Cambridge crest insignia
- Cap and 2022 tassel
- Diploma and diploma cover
- Graduation ceremony and rehearsal venue
- The price of the package is $135.
Our goal is that all senior families order their Graduation Package before the end of the semester, December 17, 2021. Meeting this deadline will allow 3rd Ascent time to ensure all caps and gowns arrive on time. During this time of shipping delays and difficulty in getting materials, it is important that we ensure all orders have been placed by this deadline.
Please know that families in need can reach out to their Guidance Counselor, or our Social Worker, for assistance. If you need help, we ask that you reach out to them today.
Course Corrections - 2nd Semester
Student schedule corrections will be accepted for the second semester beginning Tuesday, January 4, 2022, until 4:00 pm, Friday, January 7, 2022. Forms will only be accepted in the Counseling Office during this timeframe. Submitting a request does not guarantee approval. Students must continue to attend and complete all work for their current courses until confirmation of a schedule correction or communication regarding the request is received. Other classes may be changed as a result of the request. Once changed, the schedule will not be changed back.
Corrections will only be made for the following reason(s):

- A student has two of the same class on his/her schedule
- A student has met the prerequisite for a course
- A student is missing a course required for graduation
- The student did not request the assigned elective course on his/her schedule
