Seniors - Final Week of School
Seniors who need to make-up a Final Exam will individually schedule them with their instructor during the final week of school. All graduation requirements must be completed prior to the graduation ceremony in order to participate. Students who have questions about their ability to satisfy the graduation requirements should contact their academic counselor. Below is the final week schedule for seniors who complete all of their exams and requirements.
The graduation ceremonies will take place at the Portola High School Stadium at 9:00 am and 12:00 noon on June 3. Due to the detailed spacing requirements and spectator limitations we will graduate students by Teacher Advisement groups. Details on which ceremony students will be assigned to will be communicated as soon as it can be finalized.
