Cap/Gown

We are so excited to celebrate our Class of 2025! Seniors will receive cap/gown and announcement information at the mandatory Senior AT on Thursday, October 15th with the Jostens' representative. Students will receive a packet of information and order forms to look over as well as have the opportunity to order directly online at www.northwaygrad.com.

There are several different order forms to choose from:

  1. Jostens Standard Order Form (costs depends on what is ordered)
  2. Lakers Package Order Form ($269)

Please also take a minute to review Jostens Senior Celebration Day Info and the FAQs.

Jostens' will return to CHS on Monday & Tuesday, November 11th and November 12th, during lunch periods (11:07-12:55) to collect orders and celebrate our Seniors! It will be best to order in school these days (11/11 & 11/12) to receive some of your fun senior items such as hoodies, t-shirts, etc early. Payment methods will include check, cash, or card directly to the Jostens Rep. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait until spring for the orders to arrive. If you place an order of $250+, shipping & handling will be free. Late fees will apply if you order after November 12th.

Seniors attending CTE can pick up the information packet in the main office at CHS beginning the afternoon of October 15th. CTE seniors can return their cap/gown order and senior dues to the main office by November 11th.

NOTE: Northway Graduate Services is our local Representative of Jostens. They are one in the same.

Senior Dues

Senior Dues are a $20 payment to the school that we ask of all Seniors. Dues cover the cost of the class gift, flowers, and other graduation expenses. Senior Dues can be paid either by cash or a check made out to Colchester High School and will be collected by Ms. Sears in the front office. If for any reason you cannot pay your Senior Dues, please reach out to your class adviser Mr. Richey or Mr. Perry.

Senior Debt

Some seniors have unpaid debts to the school. Unpaid debt includes: lost school/library books, lunch accounts, senior dues, and athletic uniforms. These debts must be paid in order to participate in the graduation ceremony. *Seniors with unpaid books and/or other financial obligations will not march at graduation. * Seniors with debt will receive a breakdown when they receive the senior letter in April.

Photos for Yearbook

All senior portraits (and other senior section photos) are *due by Friday, November 22nd, 2024*.

Seniors have the option to submit their own portraits. If they choose to submit their own, portraits should be submitted electronically (in .jpg format) through the Jostens Website, using THIS LINK.

All other senior content, including senior quotations & messages, must be submitted via the Google form that will be emailed to students at the start of the school year.

If you are unable to submit any photos electronically, you may put a hard copy in the drop box in the main office; yearbook staff will scan the photo and return it to you. Photos can also be sent to chsyearbook@colchestersd.org.
