Seating Info: Seating for all guests will be in the bleachers on both sides of the stadium. Accessible seating is available on both sides of the stadium.
All students need to be dressed in their home school cap and gown. Please have your gowns pressed and presentable for this occasion. This is a semi-formal ceremony, so students should dress appropriately. Students may go to the Main Office to see about borrowing a cap and gown. If your student does borrow a cap and gown, we will hold their Certificate until the cap and gown are returned. It is the responsibility of the student to make sure the gown is pressed and looks presentable.
We ask guests to refrain from cheering and applauding until all names are announced so each parent can hear his/her student’s name being read. Because of the formal nature of the ceremony, we ask that you do not bring silly string, beach balls, or any other objects that will distract from the importance of the ceremony. Please wait until after the recessional to leave the stadium so the students may exit first.
