GRAD 2027 - SAVE THE DATE:

THURSDAY MAY 20, 2027

Class of 2027

The culmination of twelve years of education is a special time in the life of students, parents and staff.  We recognize this is an important passage and an occasion to be marked with two formal ceremonies. Congratulations on reaching this important occasion in your lives!

Overview

The first event is the William Aberhart High School Grad 2027  closing ceremony. This event celebrates the academic achievement of students and the completion of twelve years of schooling.

The second event is a Graduates’ Reception & Dance held at the Grey Eagle Resort & Casino for students, their guests and/or family members.

Participation:

To be eligible to take part in the graduation ceremony, grade 12 students must be registered in a program of courses that will enable them to complete the minimum requirements for an Alberta High School Diploma by the end of June 2027.  Students who do not have the possibility of completing these courses, or who leave school during the year without completing the requirements, will not be eligible to participate in the graduation ceremony.
