Senior Information
Rehearsal is on Friday, June 10th at 1 pm at the CPSC. Report to the rink. Please note that graduation rehearsal is mandatory in order for you to walk at graduation. Rehearsal is followed by an ice cream social at 3 pm and families are welcome to attend.
Here is a bulleted list of What to Expect at this year’s 92nd Commencement for the Class of 2022 on Saturday, June 11th at the Collins Perley Sports Complex:
The decision will be made on Friday, June 10th if graduation is an outdoor or indoor event. An alert call/message will be sent to seniors and families.
Seniors are to arrive at the Complex no later than 10 am and promptly report to the rink to line up.
Please dress comfortably as it can be very warm regardless of if graduation is outdoors or inside. If graduation is outdoors, graduates will be walking on turf and sitting on the bleachers so ensure your shoes are appropriate (i.e. high heels can get caught in grass and on bleachers). Seniors should arrive with their cap and gown 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 have parked, they will be directed to the registration area for check in. Please have your (4) tickets ready to present. Seniors will each be given 4 tickets for reserved seating. Other family members/guests may sit in the open seating area. Once registration is complete, you will be ushered to your seating area. Note: Seniors will receive tickets at rehearsal.
If you have special accessibility requirements, please ensure that an usher assists you.
At 11 am, the seniors will march in, be seated and the commencement begins.
Whipple Photography will be set up near the diploma stage and will take photos of the graduates receiving diplomas and a pose prior to leaving the stage. BFA is purchasing one 5x7 photo for each graduate which will be mailed home. Additional photo packages will be available for families to purchase. I will send the link for that site as soon as it is available. Another photo opportunity will be located inside the Complex. This is where you can choose to do family portraits. The family portrait option will be set up before and after the ceremony and will be similar to “cruise ship” portrait styles; quick group posing with the families and graduates. I will include links to the Whipple Photography site as graduation gets closer.
Northwest Access TV will be live streaming graduation. I will provide you with this link as well.
As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me 802-527-6400.
Sincerely, Theresa Callan, Graduation Coordinator
