3) The parent-organized Dry After Grad (DAG)

To attend the Red Carpet event, Formal Grad Dinner Dance and the Dry After Grad event, students must purchase BOTH a dinner/dance ticket and a DAG ticket. The tickets to the dinner/dance and the DAG are sold separately and organized by different groups. 

DAG tickets are now available now on McMath’s School Cash Online. The $115 ticket (you can pay in 3 separate installments or add all 3 installments into the cart to pay for the entire ticket at once) gets your grad into an overnight fun, safe, alcohol-free party that includes lots of food and entertainment. Get your DAG ticket today at School Cash Online https://schoolcashonline.com/ 

Tickets for the school-sponsored formal dinner/dance at Pat Quinn Restaurant, Tsawwassen Springs will be available shortly. 

Please contact Mr. Johnstone, Principal by email if your grad cannot afford the tickets to this celebration as it is our goal to have all grads included in this special event. 

Can students choose one June 26th event over the other? 

• Students can choose to purchase one ticket and attend the formal dinner/dance only. However, we really encourage graduates to attend both the Dinner Dance and DAG to have the full celebratory experience with their entire graduation class. 

• To attend DAG, students must purchase a DAG ticket AND a dinner/dance ticket. 

• Students can not purchase a DAG ticket only.
