Graduation Tickets

While we understand that many of our graduates have large families, graduation is hosted at a venue with capacity limitations and it is important that we ensure quality seating is made equally available to all families.  At this time, each graduating student with be allocated/guaranteed 10 tickets (at no cost) for family and friends.  There is a possibility that additional tickets may be made available at a later date.  However, this is not a guarantee.  If students do not need all 10 tickets, exchanges are permitted.  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation regarding this policy. 

Senior Dress Code Notes

Jeans shall not have rips, holes, tears, frayed edges, appliques, or images/words. Jeans shall be an appropriate fit, and in keeping with appropriate length for shorts, skorts, and skirts, as mentioned above.
