Comox Valley Schools continues to look for donations to get students dressed for grad.

The Grad Attire Program helps provide the opportunity for every student to celebrate their graduation in their preferred style.

The first fitting sessions for this school year are now underway, with several students already outfitted in formal wear as they prepare for the important milestone.

The sessions are the first of many planned throughout the year, ensuring every student has access to high-quality grad clothing at no cost.

The program is currently seeking donations of small suits, dress shoes, and medium and large dress shirts.

You can drop off any donations at GP Vanier Secondary, during school hours, or at Comox Valley Dodge, Monday to Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Last year, more than 150 students were fully suited or dressed for their graduation ceremonies through the program.

For details, visit Comox Valley Schools.
