Important Note: We are aware of the scheduling conflicts of graduations with several of the High Schools within our EVIT district.  Therefore, any student who chooses to attend their high school event and is not able to attend Completion on the night of their assigned program is invited to attend on either Tuesday or Wednesday and will sit with a group of students from their school and others in the same situation. Monday night is not an option. They will still be recognized by program.

Cap & Gown:  (Required) A cap and gown are required to participate in EVIT's completion ceremony.  We encourage all students to wear the cap & gown from their home high school.  This reflects EVIT’s commitment to allowing students to proudly represent their school while uniting as one community to celebrate this important milestone together.  If you do not have a cap & gown, EVIT has a limited supply of black gowns for sale on a first-come, first-served basis.  These may be purchased at the EVIT Student Store on the Main Campus in Building #1, between school hours of 7:30 am - 4:00 pm., or from any vendor you choose.

Program Honor Cords:  (Optional for students)  To represent your program and your accomplishments, each program has been assigned a specific color of Honor Cord. These Honor Cords may be purchased from any vendor you choose.  See the attached flyer for each program's color.

Purchasing Options:  Students may purchase a Cap & Gown and/or Honor Cords from any vendor they choose or preferably through GraduationSource Online Portal. Prices and/or shipping costs vary from vendor to vendor. Orders should be placed by April 25th to ensure they arrive on time. EVIT is not responsible for these orders.
