GRAD 2025
Parents of 2025 Grads! Mark your calendars for Wednesday, January 15th, from 7-8pm. We will be having an important, on-line, information meeting about the Dry After-Grad event happening on June 26th, 2025. This is a parent only meeting. To receive details on how to join this meeting, and future information about the dry grad event, you will need to join our distribution list by emailing your contact info to: stellysdrygrad@gmail.com. Also, join the Facebook group: "Stelly's Secondary School Parents Dry After-Grad". We look forward to seeing you on January 15th, at 7pm.
Grad photo retakes (& second opportunity if you have not yet had your photos taken) are scheduled for January 27th to 29th. Details on signing up for a time slot will be coming soon - we will share them with you as we get the link and information. Prestige Photography will have a space within the school, not in a mobile trailer as has been in previous years. Thank you for your patience.
SCRAP METAL RECYCLING: There’s a large blue metal recycling bin in the upper parking lot by the street that is awaiting your scrap metal donations. If you have any metal stuff at home, in your yard or in the shed that you want to get rid of, it’s accessible 24/7 for drop-off and proceeds go towards the 2025 Stelly’s Dry Grad!
CAREER CENTRE
Are you in grade 11 and interested in attending the University of Alberta? They are offering 20 grade 11 students from across Canada a U of A Getaway in May of 2025! Details of this great opportunity, including dates and application are here.
For all things careers, check the Career Board or the Career Ed website linked HERE! There are lots of job and volunteer opportunities available - go check it out!
Stay Golden . . . and Maroon!
