Bridgeway has the right to remove your cap if deemed necessary.*Cap and Gown Information:Students attending in person must order a cap and gown directly from Graduation Source in Royal Blue/Shiny. The tassel should have a 2025 charm and color choices #1 royal blue and #2 gold. You can purchase the package that we recommend HERE. Ordering a cap and gown is optional for those not attending in person; however, in the coming months, students will have the opportunity to send in a video of themselves "walking the stage." Last year, many of our students chose to wear their caps and gowns for this opportunity. Interested in purchasing a class ring? You can purchase this independently and we recommend this website. Bridgeway does not order any class jewelry. For seniors attending the in-person graduation,diploma covers will be issued at graduation TEMPORARILY just for ceremony and picture usage. The diploma, diploma cover, and official transcripts for ALL SENIORS will be sent via mail for security and safety purposes.
