Graduation - 2023

Dear Graduating Student,

Congratulations! 

Our records indicate that you may be a candidate for graduation.  To ensure your participation in the graduation ceremony, you must successfully complete all required courses.  

Even though you may participate in the graduation ceremony, you will be given a diploma only after you have fulfilled all graduation requirements.  If you are in doubt as to your graduation status, please make an appointment to see a counselor/advisor as soon as possible.

In order to prepare for graduation, there are several action steps that you will need to take and dates to mark on your calendar.  

• Cap and Gown Measurements. To ensure a good fit and your confidence on the big day, please provide your ACCURATE weight, height and hat size.  Use a standard tape measure to measure the circumference of your head and your height. Your accurate weight also ensures a great fit for your gown. You can pick up a tape measure at the Open House.
  • Complete the Cap and Gown Measurements form online or visit the Grad Table at the LCAS Annual Spring Open House on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, 5:00 - 7:00 PM at Firebaugh High School, 5246 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., Lynwood, CA 90262.
• Petition for Graduation Survey. We need to ensure that your name is printed correctly on your diploma and that we have your most current contact information. 
  • Please complete the Petition for Graduation Survey online or visit the Grad Table at the LCAS Annual Spring Open House on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, 5:00 - 7:00 PM at Firebaugh High School, 5246 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., Lynwood, CA 90262. 
• Choose the Class Theme. Each year, the graduating class chooses a class theme, which represents your educational journey.  The theme is also used to guide graduation speeches.
  • Take a few minutes to read through the class theme options on the Class of 2023 Graduation Themes survey and select your favorite by Monday, May 1, 2023.  The one with the most votes will become the Class of 2023 Class Theme.
• Choose Your Class Officers. At the first Graduation Meeting on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, you and your fellow graduates will select the class officers, learn who will be the class Valedictorian and Salutatorian, and find out which class theme your class selected. Make every effort to be there! 
• End of the Year Celebration Banquet. The Banquet will be held on Thursday, May 25, 2023, (7:30 - 11:30 PM). It's a wonderful celebration of your accomplishments! Let's get dressed up, enjoy a nice dinner, and enjoy some dancing! Your dinner options (choose one): Braised Beef Short Ribs, Five Cheese Tortellini, or Oven Roasted Salmon. Dinner will be served at 8:00 PM. More information is in the attached flyer.
