Several speakers will address the graduates and the audience.  Graduates will then be called up alphabetically to receive their diploma.  Students will return to their seats and remain standing until everyone in their row returns.  At the conclusion of the ceremony, family and guests will be invited onto the field to greet graduates and take pictures.

Graduates must be in the large  gym  no later than 6:15 p.m.  Due to the amount of time it takes to line up and prepare students for the procession, it is possible they will not be able to march if they are not in the gym by 6:15 p.m. Please have your student here on time!
