Graduation/Senior Information
Congrats, CHS Class of 2027!
Check this page often as information is updated all school year.
Senior Class Meeting - All Things Graduation!
Our first Senior Class Meeting was held during Pack Time on Wednesday, October 14. National Achiever was on site and shared info on ordering caps & gowns and senior swag items. Graduation Info packets were distributed for all seniors to take home and share with parents/guardians. They are also linked here:
Seniors were encouraged to register with National Achiever in order to receive texts & emails with important info and due dates. You will need to enter height and weight, but this DOES NOT count as your actual cap & gown order - this is for National Achiever's records only. You will still need to order items using the link in the next paragraph. Click here for the link for seniors to register.
Ordering Caps & Gowns and Other Senior Items:
Click here to visit the CHS Class of 2027 Graduation shop. You can choose from many different cap & gown bundles, senior swag items, fun tassels, and lots of other senior items. Swag items ordered by October 28 will be delivered before winter break! Deadline for spring delivery of caps & gowns is December 20. * Should financial assistance be needed, please reach out to your counselor or Ms. Martin in the main office. * Note: should you wish to order JUST a 2027 stole and tassel, please visit this link.
Senior Photos & Ads for Yearbook:
The window to submit senior portraits and grad ads for the yearbook has officially opened! Submissions will be accepted until NOVEMBER 13, 2026.
📷 SENIOR PORTRAITS:
To submit your senior portrait for the yearbook, click here. Access code is chs27 (all lower case; no space between the s and 27).
A few tips:
-
Your preferred portrait does not have to be "professional." Any phone or camera can take a good portrait.
-
Vertical layout is best - just like your official school photo taken by Dorian.
-
If you submit a horizontal photo, it will be cropped by yearbook staff. Even a vertical photo may have to be cropped so you don't show up too small on the page.
-
Your portrait should be in focus and clearly show your face. "Headshot" style is ideal. Photo must be between 2 and 15MB.
-
If you do not upload a photo by the due date, your school photo taken by Dorian will be featured in the yearbook.
📰 GRAD ADS:
Click here to submit your grad ad. CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: personal computers are best for doing this. Work computers have firewalls and other security measures in place that interfere with the grad ad website. Phones and tablets are not ideal either. Should you encounter issues, email help@walsworth.com or call 877-723-6344. The yearbook team will also be offering support sessions as needed. To see a flyer with helpful tips, click here.
For a printable sheet with lots more info on submitting portraits and ads, click here. This document will also be included in the Grad Info Packet being sent home with seniors on October 14.
Should you have any questions or issues, please email martinl@rsd407.org and your message will be forwarded to the appropriate member of the yearbook team.
A Few Advance Details:
