Graduation weekend was an exciting and busy time. The weekend began with the presentation of HMS Pinafore. The students hit the stage after a busy week of final exams. After the Saturday night performance, the students and staff stuck the stage in preparation for the Graduation ceremonies on Sunday. Sunday began with the Baccalaureate Service at RMC in the morning. Four students shared their faith stories during this time. The Graduation Ceremony took place in the gymnasium during the afternoon. The celebration continued in Saskatoon at the Western Development Museum. The graduation banquet was followed by a photoshoot in Boomtown, a Year in Review slide presentation, a coffeehouse and energetic and enthusiastic dancing sets. It was a meaningful time of celebration for our school community. The students continued through the night at a fireside hosted by the Boldts. The morning brought many tears and hugs as students said goodbye to each other and the 2013 school year.
