- You should have received an email delivered to your JCC email address that will provide a link for you to r.s.v.p. to this ceremony.
- If you have not already done so, you will be given the opportunity to purchase graduation
regalia which includes the option for a robe, cap, tassel, and degree cover through
our JCC Barnes and Noble Bookstore.
When you r.s.v.p. to the ceremony, you will be directed to questions relevant to purchasing the regalia such as height and weight ranges. The JCC Barnes and Noble Bookstore will be open from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. daily Monday, June 1 – Friday, June 5 in order for you to pick up and pay for the regalia you have ordered.
Graduation regalia is not required to participate in the drive thru ceremony. - You are welcome to bring family members in one vehicle to enjoy the experience with you. *** If your family drives in another vehicle, they will be unable to enter the property at JCC and will miss seeing your drive thru ceremony. They must accompany you in your one vehicle. ***
- You and your family members must stay in your one vehicle at all times.
- You are welcome to decorate your vehicle with artwork, etc. as long as the wording, symbols, drawings, etc. are appropriate.
- You should plan to arrive no later than 5:30 p.m. to the Wilson Building parking lot on JCC’s main campus located at 245 College Road.
