Diploma Names
We will be utilizing SchoolTool as the base for how the students’ name will appear on their diplomas. With that in mind, should a student have a middle name listed on SchoolTool, it will be included. Further, should a student have a middle initial listed on SchoolTool, it will be included. Lastly, should a student NOT have a middle name or middle initial listed, it will NOT be included.
**Please note that this is ONLY for the diploma as the yearbook does not include middle names.**
Seniors, please take a moment to look at your SchoolTool account to ensure that your name is how you would like it on your diploma. Additionally, please check that the spelling is as you would prefer, as well as any hyphens. Should you require a name or spelling correction on your diploma other than what is listed in SchoolTool, please notify Mrs. Heins in the main office by February 14.
