CORDS AND COWLS: Seniors can purchase an honors cord or cowl in the main office for graduation beginning May 3. “It’s nice to honor [seniors] with something special that shows that they’ve committed to their schoolwork and that they’re earned it,” Assistant Principal Mike Roberson said.

Seniors will have the opportunity to pick up an honor cord or cowl in the main office for graduation beginning May 3. Cords can be purchased for $10 and cowls for $15.

Seniors with a 3.0 or higher GPA are eligible for a cord or cowl. Those who fall between the 3.0-3.699 GPA range are eligible for a cord while those with a 3.7 GPA or higher are eligible for a cowl for graduation.

“It shows you put a lot of time and effort,” Assistant Principal Mike Roberson said. “It’s not an easy task to do and it takes a lot of commitment.”
