Gold/ GPA cords are for those who have attained a 3.6 cumulative GPA are for their high school career. Silver/ AP Cords for those who have taken 4 AP exams and CCMR (White), those who meet CCMR requirements.

These three cords can be picked up in the cafeteria during lunch on the following days, according to your alpha. Due to possible long lines, students who are not assigned to that day will not be able to pick up their cords.

Alpha (A-D) / Beta (E-Li )- May 4-A & B- lunch
Gamma (Lj-Ra ) / Delta (Re-Z )- May 5- A & B lunch
Make-up day for all Alphas- May 6

To find a list of the white, gold, and silver cords, you can go to the East Graduation Website and click Cord Distribution CCMR (White) GPA (Gold) & AP (Silver). We. hope to have this link up and active by mid next week. You must be logged into your PISD account.

No cords will be given out at graduation. Cords must be picked up prior.

NHS stoles will be given out during the same timelines and follow the same Alpha schedule as above.

Juniors,

We would like to share some information about senior portraits and yearbook pictures. Beginning 2026-2027 school year, we will continue to offer senior portraits in the summer for our senior families, but they will not be used for the yearbook. During the summer senior portrait setting provided by Legacy Photography, you can sign up for various options of pictures which will allow you to have the traditional cap and gown picture along with other outfits if you choose, depending on the package you select. If you would like to schedule an appointment for senior portraits through the school, please use this link. All yearbook pictures will be taken when school begins through social studies classes in regular school attire. Students will receive their student ID after their picture is taken when school begins.
