Day Classes – Success Stories

Graduation

Have you completed all your secondary school credits this school year?

If you finished all your credits for this academic year, you must inform the Guidance Office by August 31 and let us know that you plan to graduate with St. Louis.

Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD)

If you have successfully completed all OSSD requirements—congratulations!
Your OSSD is an official Ministry of Education document that colleges, universities, and many employers require as proof of graduation.

Please note:

  • OSSDs are issued once per year.
  • St. Louis holds its OSSD Graduation Ceremony every November.
  • This ceremony is for students who:
    • Completed all OSSD credits between September 1 and August 31, and
    • Submitted an Intent to Graduate Form with the St. Louis Guidance Office.
  • Qualifying students are invited to attend the OSSD Graduation Ceremony and invite up to 2 guests.

If You Cannot Attend the Ceremony

If you are unable to attend the November ceremony, please email stlouis@wcdsb.ca after the ceremony date to arrange an in‑person pick‑up of your diploma. Diplomas cannot be mailed.

Current Students Completing Their Final Credits

If you are a current St. Louis student and are completing your final credits— including the 40 hours of community involvement—you must complete an Intent to Graduate Form with the Guidance Office.

Only current students may complete this form.
All other individuals must complete the Guidance Intake Form.
