Steinbach Regional Secondary School's Saturday graduation in June 2014 will see a repeat in June 2015.

Superintendent Randy Dueck explains not long after the 2014 graduation the Winnipeg Convention Centre came to the SRSS and asked they consider another Saturday graduation and in return would make sure it was financially affordable.

“And then the SRSS checked with the community and there were very positive comments form parents and students. Very, very positive comments,” notes Dueck. “And as a result SRSS came to the board and requested that the board make the grad for Saturday again this year.”

Dueck says the board approved another Saturday graduation date for the upcoming June 27, 2015 graduation. However he notes this is again a one-time decision and any future graduation dates will be reviewed at that time.
