Graduation

Graduation - Wednesday 10:00am

Graduation should last around an hour.  Refreshments will be served at the conclusion of the graduation. Students are free to leave after graduation!

I've had a few parents ask about dress code.  We do not have a dress code for graduation but here are our suggestions...

Girls - dresses or skirts, dress pants - no short shorts

Boys - dress pants/khakis, dress shorts/khaki shorts, polo shirt or dress shirt (tie optional)

Again, these are just suggestions!

Keep this as a reference for middle school, high school and college!!!
