The HERC Graduation ceremony is a God-honoring event intended to celebrate home educators and their High School and Jr. High graduates.

Each year home-educated graduates from a variety of schools gather together for a formal ceremony followed by a dinner or dessert reception. This year we will be celebrating our 30th annual graduation ceremony!

If you are interested in more information concerning our graduation ceremony, please plan on attending our Orientation meeting at 5:30 pm on Thursday October 1, 2026 at Calvary Chapel Bakersfield, 6501 Schirra Ct in the 400 building. At this meeting you will find out more details about the graduation ceremony and yearlong activities leading up to graduation week and the ceremony.
