Graduation Day

Students who participate in the graduation ceremony are expected to abide by the following guidelines:

Please find your chair and sit down in the row you are assigned until Principal Thennis has finished with announcements.
You will be asked to line up according to the walk-in list. Look for the person directing your row number and follow them. That person will instruct you how to line up.
Certain circumstances may arise causing some of you to line up alone. If you are alone, you will be paired with either the people ahead of or behind you. Please stay in your line as you march in during graduation.

Be prepared to take care of any school fines before graduation practice. ALL FINES must be paid on Friday, June 3RD by NOON in order to receive your diploma. Senior fines have been posted on the main office windows beginning after spring break and will be updated on a weekly basis. Please check Power School or contact the bookkeeper for your fine status. Final Fine Lists are posted by the end of Graduation Practice and seniors are encouraged to check the list or access Power School to be sure they did not acquire any other fines that morning – as several textbooks are turned in that morning that might have added a damage fine, etc.

Commencement exercises begin at 9:00 AM therefore, SENIORS MUST REPORT BY 8:00 AM.

Care of the Cap and Gown

The wearing of caps and gowns has been handed down to us as a symbol of learning. As soon as possible upon receiving your gowns, place the gown on a hanger to allow the folds to fall out. If a light pressing is needed, ALWAYS USE A PRESSING CLOTH BETWEEN THE IRON (which should be set at low) AND THE GOWN. Excessive heat will ruin the gown.

The cap must be placed on your head so that the mortarboard is level with the long point of the crown at the back. The front point should be well down on the forehead. Please do not wear the cap so far back that it needs to have bobby pins to hold it on.

Be respectful of the graduation ceremony. Be a Class Act!
Mortar boards may be tastefully decorated. Please select appropriate attire to be worn underneath your gowns.

Use of alcohol/drugs before or during graduation or rehearsal will not be tolerated. Anyone suspected of use will be removed from the lineup, both at rehearsal and at graduation.

Parade of Graduates

Seniors – this is your opportunity to return to your previous middle school to celebrate your graduation with former teachers and to inspire younger students to graduate. You will need to wear your cap and gown for this event. Transportation will be provided.
