Senior Parents – We know graduation seems like it is still far away, but planning is already underway!

We are putting together a video slideshow to be shown at the Baccalaureate dinner in May.  We will be including each boy’s freshman and senior yearbook photos, but we are hoping to collect 5 additional photos of your son that capture moments from his time at SLUH. Each photo must be a minimum size of 1MB and be in a .jpeg format to look best for the video.

Please review your photos and find the best pictures that represent your son's time at SLUH. The pictures can be group shots with his SLUH friends, pictures from sports and/or club activities, or whatever best shows off fun highlights of his time at SLUH. Please avoid using photos with non-SLUH students from dances or other activities. It will be a tremendous help if the photo file names include your son’s name.

 Once we are ready to start receiving your photos, we will update this information with an email address for submissions. 

Senior Memory Video:  This video is a compilation of photos of the entire senior class covering their four years at SLUH.  The video is first viewed at the Baccalaureate Dinner.  

Senior Class Composite:  You will be able to reserve your 16” x 20” photo of the entire Class of 2024.

Graduation Announcements

Jostens provides the official SLUH Graduation Announcements, as well as additional items such as extra tassels.  Jostens is scheduled to be on SLUH campus for their initial presentation Tuesday, Oct 17th.  Each student will receive a pamphlet  with options and pricing. Jostens will return to SLUH campus on Oct 24th to collect orders.

Graduation Party Supplies

High quality graduation party supplies will be for sale later in the year.  Items will include personalized SLUH notecards and other traditional Jr Billiken party supplies such as balloons, napkins, and yard signs.

These funds help us cover costs for the Senior Lock-In.

Sample photos and information will be posted as soon as its available.

There is only one acceptable attire for the graduates: A tuxedo consisting of white jacket, black trousers, black cummerbund, and bow tie.  Additional requirements include black socks, black dress shoes, and a white shirt (not necessarily a tux shirt).

Graduation tuxedos are provided by Stallone's Formal Wear.  During the second semester, all students will be professional measured by a Stallone representative during school hours, most likely using the advisory or activity period. 

The exact dates for tuxedo measurement as not yet been set.
