| At WJ, for what activities and achievements do seniors receive sashes/tassels/cords at graduation? |
| I know there's a tassel for having 240 or more SSL hours. |
| Yay a WJ thread. And an easier topic to discuss about MCPS. |
| There are cords for the various honor societies. |
| I think it’s a medal on ribbon for seal of biliteracy. |
| Something for APEX and perhaps the other special academic programs. |

I'm curious who decides what cords/tassels/sashes are allowed. Can my kid propose a new one? |
| Green cords are financial literacy, probably the most common one for graduates to wear. |
Not at WJ |
| Do they allow outside cords? Or Do they notice an outside cord? |
There's a new cord this year for Summer RISE |
What's that? |
| Do they have that red and blue cord? If I remember correctly I think it’s for the Thomas Edison Program/Career |
| School district specific. In my kid’s school (another state), cords were for National Honor Society and GPA levels. |
I doubt anyone would notice. The cords are sort of out of control. I think you can buy one for things like Eagle Scout, |
