Mass

Baccalaureate Mass 

The meaning of the word Baccalaureate is “sermon to the graduates.” In the Catholic Dominican tradition, we invite all graduating seniors and their families to thank God with a Baccalaureate Mass on Saturday, May 9 at 9:00 am in St. Dominic Chapel.   

Each participating graduate should indicate their guest count in the registration form.
