SubSchool Graduation???

by NavyFamily

Apr 22, 2017

My son is in SubSchool currently in Groton ... He will stay there for his A School also we think.

Is graduation from SubSchool something parents come in for like PIR at RTC?

Just trying to do some planning :-)

Thanks so much in advance for any information.

    If you fly to get there, make sure that you get refundable tickets. The graduation date is a moving target. Our son's graduation date was supposed to be May 9th, then it was moved to April 24th and we talked to our son last night and he informed us that they had graduated the day before on April 20th. We unfortunately got non refundable tickets for May 9th and still plan to go out there but we missed the graduation.

      Yes to the above. We are in Washington state, so apart from PIE at RCT we are not planning to go to each course graduation (though we are flying out for a random weekend when our son is on liberty). What we hear is that there may be opportunity for them to come home at Christmas, and then for sure a trip home after A School, before deployment.
