Graduation:

Location: Collins Perley Sports Complex  

Here is a bulleted list of what to expect at this year’s 95th Commencement for the Class of 2025 on Saturday, June 14th, at 11 am at the Collins Perley Sports Complex:

  • On June 14th, seniors are to arrive at the Complex no later than 10 am and promptly report to the rink to line up.

  • Please dress comfortably for graduation as it can be very warm regardless of if graduation is outdoors or indoors.  If graduation is outdoors, seniors will be walking on turf and sitting on the bleachers so ensure shoes are appropriate (i.e. high heels can get caught in the grass and on bleachers). Seniors should arrive with their caps and gowns on.  

  • Please ride with your families to limit the number of vehicles for parking. Traffic in and around CPSC is congested. Carpooling is encouraged.

  • Once families and guests have parked, they will be directed to the graduation entrance. Please have your (4) tickets ready to present, and you will keep your tickets with you. Seniors will each be given 4 tickets for reserved seating. Other family members/guests may sit in the open seating area. Families and/or guests will be ushered to the seating area(s).

  • If you, a family member, or guests have accessibility requirements (wheelchair, hearing impaired, etc.), please contact me. I’ll assist you with your needs and ensure that an usher assists you upon arrival at graduation.

  • At 11 am, the seniors will walk in and march down the middle aisle, and the commencement begins.

  • Whipple Photography will be at graduation.  Photographs will include the presentation of the diploma, followed by a portrait holding the diploma.  Images from graduation will be posted for graduates and families to view on the Monday after graduation.
