Graduation

A version of this message was sent to high school staff and seniors’ families on Oct. 12.

Graduation for the class of 2022 has been tentatively scheduled for Saturday, June 11 at Civic Field. We will share times and details as the date gets closer.

We received positive feedback from 2021 graduates, families and staff about their experience at Civic, and we are hoping to replicate the magic for the class of 2022.

We have also learned through snow days and the pandemic that our school calendar and plans sometimes need to change. We ask that you hold off on finalizing your plans for graduation until the end of February (e.g. buying plane tickets for grandparents) in case we need to modify dates.

Please take note of these important dates for 2022:

  • Feb. 28 is the day we plan to finalize our graduation dates and last day for seniors, if not before. Please do not make travel plans or other arrangements before Feb. 28, because if the school year gets extended, then our graduation ceremonies would likely be the following week. If a day of school gets canceled after Feb. 28, graduation dates likely would not be affected to allow staff and families time to plan and out-of-town guests to make travel arrangements.
  • June 9 is tentatively set for our graduation event for our graduates of our Community Transitions program at Depot Market Square.
  • June 10 is tentatively the last day for seniors.
  • June 13-17 is the week after graduation, and we ask you to please avoid making vacation plans for that week or you may miss the final days of school and/or end-of-year activities if dates change.

Visit our graduation ceremonies webpage to watch our ceremonies which occurred on June 12, 2021.
