Because of the change involved with COVID-19, the band and chorus will not perform. We are trying to make sure our other traditions are intact to the best of our ability!
Usually, I say, “Dress your best”. However, we are going to be outdoors and on astroturf. This could make for a very hot evening. This is a FORMAL event that you have worked toward for 13 years! Take it seriously. LOOK your BEST and be on your BEST behavior!
NO jeans!
Wear dress clothes under your cap and gown.
NO markings on your cap or gown
If you wear high heels, they should not be so high that you will have trouble walking in them! The turf may make you unsteady!
You must arrive at 5:00 PM for practice.
Parents will be allowed to enter at 6:00 PM
How should I behave?
As mentioned above, these are formal events that are all about you. We will recognize and honor all of your successes and accomplishments over the past four years. This is also the time to celebrate one another. You honor each other by being respectful of each other, the speakers, and the presenters at all events. Clap when appropriate, cheer when appropriate, and be quiet when appropriate. Always be RESPECTFUL!
BE ON TIME! BE ON TIME! BE ON TIME!
What should I bring?
Graduation-Bring your cap and gown! Bring your Tassel! No purses, bags, noisemakers, or silly string!
What makes me eligible to participate in the Graduation Commencement Ceremony?
You must have completed ALL 24 credits required to graduate prior to the ceremony! NO EXCEPTIONS!
You must have taken care of all financial obligations to the school and county.
Turned in (or paid for) your iPad, charging cord, and brick.
Always Be A Student
Keep on learning, Warriors,
Though your high school years are done;
Your whole life’s an education
That has only just begun.
Your diploma is the first big step,
For knowledge is the special key
To winning what you want in life
And being who you want to be.
If you'll always be a student,
You’ll find the secrets to success
And travel on the gold road
To peace and happiness
