GRAD 2020

Class of 2020 Congratulations!!

The Claremont staff are incredibly proud of our graduating class of 2020. You are amazing ambassadors of Claremont, and you have risen above unique challenges and obstacles to arrive at your graduation day. You are the class that will be remembered for many years to come, as the class who demonstrated tremendous flexibility, adaptability, resilience , patience, courage, and determination. You are definitely ready for your future and whatever path you blaze for yourselves. In the world ahead of you, please remember to create balance in your lives: amidst your world of future education or work, find time to do things that are fun, energize you, feed your soul, and bring you happiness. Congratulations Grads!!


Grad Ceremony – 5pm TONIGHT

The Virtual Grad Ceremony will be hosted live on YouTube starting at 5pm TONIGHT. This video will be accessible through the Saanich School District website, along with a download link so you can save the event as a keepsake. The School District will keep the video available as a stream until mid-July.

As another option, at the same time, Shaw Cable will be simultaneously broadcasting the graduation video on their network (Spotlight Channel 4/Blue Curve 105). This is an exciting alternative for families to view and PVR the ceremony as well.


Post-Secondary Institute Selections

Reminder to Grads, if you are moving onto a College or University in the Fall (Canada or USA), you MUST make sure you have created your BCeID account and submitted your PSI selection on the Ministry of Education website (this includes MOST Canadian and USA Post-Secondary Institutions). This is the way that your final OFFICIAL graduation transcript can be directly sent to your post-secondary institution in the middle of summer, when the final marks are uploaded with the Ministry of Education. Note: the transcripts from Claremont are year-end transcripts with final marks, but are not the OFFICIAL final transcript that PSI’s require. The link in on the Grad Page of the Claremont website, plus there is an excellent video with instructions on the Grad Page. Deadline to submit is July 10.
