Halo Highlight: Class of 2020 Graduation Set for May 27 at Cougar Stadium
We are pleased to announce that Commencement ceremonies for the Class of 2020 will take place Wednesday, May 27, at 7 p.m. in Cougar Stadium, located at the corner of First Avenue and Fifth Street, according to the Office of Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Lake Charles and St. Louis Catholic.
Plans are subject to change depending on Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards’ timeline for safety regulations. Initial details were sent to graduates and their families Thursday morning, and more specific details will follow.
We will combine graduation with Senior Honors Night, so it is vital for seniors to turn in the Senior Data sheet with all relevant documentation to the Counseling Office by Wednesday, May 13th so we can honor your achievements. We can't wait to celebrate with you!
