The Baccalaureate Liturgy will be held at the Cathedral of the Annunciation, located at 400 W Rose Street in Stockton, on Wednesday, May 22, 2024, at 6:00PM. Because parking is limited, families might want to consider carpooling and allow extra time for parking. Please be sure not to block neighborhood driveways. Also, parked cars should be locked with valuables out of sight.

 

The Class of 2024 will be celebrating this Baccalaureate Liturgy with their family and friends as our special gift to the graduates. We want to ask God to bless them and give them the strength to meet the challenges, responsibilities, and difficulties of life with the grace of God and our Blessed Mother. 

 

It is mandatory that all seniors attend graduation practice on Thursday, May 23, 2024, at 10:45AM on Sanguinetti Field at SMHS.

 

The graduation ceremony will be held on the SMHS football field on Friday, May 24, 2024 , at 6:30PM. Seniors will need to arrive at the Morelli Gym no later than 4:30PM. Relatives and guests of the graduates are asked to model appropriate dress and behavior. Noisemakers, balloons, signs, and banners are inappropriate at the graduation ceremony and will be confiscated. 

 

Because our graduation ceremony begins promptly at 6:30PM, we ask that you make every effort to be seated before the procession begins. The graduates and their families most gratefully appreciate this courtesy. In planning your evening, please allow extra time for parking and walking to the football field. Limited ADA parking will be available. Gates open at 5:30 PM.
