High School Graduation 2024

We are excited to share with you that planning for CHEF Graduation 2024 is underway!

Our seniors have worked so hard over the years to get to this point. We pray that this CHEF Graduation will be a time of sweet reflection of their hard work and many accomplishments. We look forward to celebrating them and their academic achievements. 

There are many facets to graduation. Each family must participate in the planning by signing up to lead a particular responsibility (class verse, financials, photographs, pre-graduation snacks, cap/gown, etc.), attend the meetings, and attend the rehearsal for their senior to walk on graduation day.
