Grade 12 Community Announcements

Support Dry Grad 2025!

What is Dry Grad? 

  • Dry Grad is an event immediately following the Grad Dinner and Dance being held on June 25th, 2025.
  • Dry Grad is an opportunity for our Grads to shed their finery, pop on some comfortable clothes, and keep the party going to celebrate the end of their high school journey. This is their last hurrah before they head into their separate futures – the last time the BMSS Class of 2025 are all together in one space.
  • Dry Grads in BC started in the 1990s as a way for parents and schools to offer a safe option for a Grad afterparty to ensure Grads can continue to celebrate their achievement in a fun, relaxed and safe way, alcohol- and drug-free. It keeps the party going, while ensuring all of our Grads arrive home safe.
