We invite you to celebrate the class of 2016 at one of Ignite Christian Academy’s graduation ceremonies this spring! This year we will host three commencement ceremonies, two regional and one virtual.
The Dallas area regional ceremony will be held on May 13, 2016 at Cottonwood Creek Baptist Church in Allen, Texas. The Orlando area regional ceremony will be held on June 3, 2016 at Eastland Christian School in Orlando, Florida. To meet the needs of students unable to travel to one of our regional ceremonies, we will also offer a virtual ceremony broadcasted live on May 27, 2016 from Dordt College in Sioux Center, Iowa.
Each regional ceremony is a traditional cap and gown event beginning at 7:00 p.m. (CST). The ceremonies include a special welcome, a challenging address to the graduates, and the presentation of diplomas. Each regional ceremony is followed by a reception for the graduates and their guests. There is also an optional Day Away team building activity the morning of graduation for students participating in the regional ceremonies. In order to have the Day Away team building activity, five or more people must sign up for the event.
The virtual ceremony will be broadcasted live online at 2:00 p.m. (CST) from the campus of Dordt College, allowing ICA graduates, families, and friends to participate from anywhere in the world. The ceremony includes a live address to the graduates and the presentation of diplomas.
The deadline to register for graduation is Friday, March 25, 2016. The cost to participate in a regional ceremony is $170 per graduate. The cost to participate in the virtual ceremony is $60 per graduate. All graduates participating in a ceremony will receive a cap and gown, tassel, senior T-shirt, and DVD of graduation. To sign up for one of the ceremonies, please contact your education coordinator at 800-682-7396.
