It will be a celebration that will mark years of hard work.
A celebration to congratulate and a celebration to feel proud. The Dauphin Regional Comprehensive Secondary School (DRCSS) is all set to hold its graduation ceremony on Saturday afternoon beginning at 1:00 p.m. inside the school's gym.
Taylor Schmidt is the school's principal and he is extremely proud of each and every student that will graduate over the weekend.
"This is a real celebration for the students, it is the biggest day of the year for us," said Schmidt. "As an entire staff, we get to celebrate this accomplishment. "It's a big deal to get your high school diploma and these students have worked so hard. We are excited to celebrate with them on Saturday."
The doors will open at 11:30 a.m. and everyone is welcomed to attend.
139 students are set to graduate which will mark the largest number of graduates in the past five years, at least. Saturday will be without a doubt a special day and one to remember.
"It's such an exciting time of year for myself and those involved," offered Schmidt. "It's all the emotion, the nervous, the excitement, and the unsure. There has been an outstanding energy throughout the building these last couple of weeks."
Last year's convocation was packed so if you are looking to get a prime seat for the festivites, Schmidt urges you to head down to the school early.
"I'm prediciting a packed gym once again," ended Schmidt. "We invite people to come down to celebrate and get ready to cheer."
