Dear Students and Families,  

As we are nearing the end of the 2020-2021 school year, we want to share important details regarding the pick-up of graduation items for Grade 12 students, and the return of any loaned technology to the school.  

Graduation Item Pick-Up 
Each Grade 12 student will receive a graduation lawn sign that they may wish to display. Graduation lawn signs and gift bags can be picked up from Father Leo J. Austin Catholic Secondary School on Thursday, June 17 from 11:30am-3:45pm. Diplomas, etc., can be picked up on Tuesday, June 29 between 11:30am-4:00pm and Wednesday, June 30 between 9:00am-11:30am. Please arrive curbside at the main entrance.  

Technology Return Information  
For students who received loaned technology from the board/school in the 2020-2021 school year, we would ask that you return these items on Monday, June 28 in alphabetical order, curbside at the main entrance.

COVID-19 Health and Safety Protocols  
We ask that one family member arrive at the school. Please ensure you complete the Ministry of Health COVID-19 self-assessment prior to attending the pick-up/drop-off and do not come if you answer “yes” to any of the questions or common symptoms of COVID-19. In addition, we kindly ask for your cooperation in keeping a physical distance of 6 feet between each other at all times.  

Virtual Graduation Ceremony 
Graduating Grade 12 students and their families are welcome to join us on Tuesday, June 29 for virtual graduation. The link will release at 10:00am Tuesday, June 29. Links will be provided through Edsby.
