This is such an exciting time of year, especially for our seniors who have earned the privilege of walking across the stage at graduation. As you know, this is a time of great honor where we recognize twelve years of hard work and dedication on both the parts of the students and the parents. In order to have a ceremony that honors the graduates in a way that they deserve, I need to ask you to help out in the following ways:
- If possible, please consider this a dress-up occasion. While formal wear is not suggested, dressing nicely helps to create the dignified atmosphere we need to properly honor our graduates.
- Please be respectful of our speakers by not creating conversation during the speeches. A number of students have worked very hard to create and present meaningful presentations, and we want to honor their efforts.
- Please keep young children seated with you at all times. Children left to run free, especially on the balcony above the gym floor, can cause distractions to the ceremony, as well as being a safety issue.
- Please discuss with your graduating students that this is indeed a distinguished ceremony, and items such as silly string, beach balls, and airhorns take away from the ceremony that they deserve. While we want graduation to be enjoyable, it is important to remember that this is a time to respect our graduates and provide them with a dignified event.
As parents, you are to be commended for the efforts you have
given to your students as they prepare to leave
With thanks,
Principal, Field Kindley High School
