Graduation
Good morning,
As a follow-up to the message from Dr. Cooke, please see below.
Graduation
Graduation will take place on Friday, June 16 at 2:00 p.m. on the lawn of the First Congregational Church. As a reminder, if you are not planning to use all six (6) tickets, please return any extra tickets to the Main Office as soon as possible. Reserving seats during the day on June 16 is prohibited. Gates will open at 1:15 p.m. Graduates should report to the Green by 1:15 p.m.
Our goal for this special afternoon is to present our graduates to the Madison community in a ceremony that is both festive and dignified. The expected dress for students participating in this special event includes collared shirts, ties, long pants, dresses, skirts and blouses, or a pants outfit, and appropriate footwear. Students may decorate their mortarboards, but must refrain from vulgar or offensive expressions and from articles that protrude from the surface of the mortarboard. Students' gowns may not be decorated in any way. Students who do not comply with our guidelines may be prohibited from participating in the ceremony.
- Toys, noisemakers, silly string (extremely flammable), cigars, and other articles/items, which detract from the ceremony, are prohibited. I ask your assistance in assuring compliance with these guidelines so that the ceremony is enjoyable and memorable for everyone.
Video/Livestream
Our TV production students do an outstanding job in recording, editing, and broadcasting the event on local cable television. The event will be livestreamed on the NFHS network and after the conclusion of the event, broadcasted on local Cable TV. Click this link to access the livestream. Feel free to share this link with family and friends.
Photographs
Steady Photography will provide professional photography services for each graduate as they receive a diploma. We have found that providing these services for families allows everyone the opportunity to enjoy the event from the audience and minimizes the need to get to the front, which often blocks the view of others. Steady Photography will ship the complimentary photo directly to parents/guardians approximately one week after graduation.
Stay healthy,
Mr. Salutari
