High School Graduation To Be Held In Gym Friday Night

I know you have been awaiting our decision on graduation. It has been decided to have the graduation in the gym. I know this is not what you had in mind when you pictured this day; however, we will strive to make this graduation a special occasion for you and your family. We always make the safety of our students and visitors our first priority. After careful consideration it is not feasible for us to take on the risk. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Instructions for graduation will be as follows:

1. Please notify guidance today if you are not planning to walk at graduation.

2. Graduation practice will be at 9:30 on Friday. Please arrive no later than 9:15. This usually takes around an hour and a half.

3. If you have not already picked up your tickets, you can pick them up today or at graduation practice.

Those who purchased "chair" tickets will be allowed to enter the gym at 5:30. Anyone with a "non-chair" ticket will be able to enter the gym at 6:00.

4. Any overflow (people without a ticket) will enter the front of the school at the front office and be escorted to the cafeteria at 6:00 p.m. to watch a live stream of the graduation ceremony.

5. Instructions for graduates in regards to arrival, graduation formation, etc. will be given at practice on Friday morning.

Unfortunately, due to space limitations, we are not allowing any stadium seats to be brought into the gymnasium. You may bring foam cushions.

We also encourage carpooling as much as possible due to parking limitations and weather-related parking concerns.
