Graduation is a recognition
of the Class of 2014. This is
a time that the entire
community celebrates and
honors you as a class.
This is a milestone and for most is
an incredibly important event.
Please don’t spoil the event for
yourself or for others by not being
respectful.
I will ask that you allow each graduate
his/her moment as they cross the
stage.
There will be grandparents and
relatives that have traveled many miles
to witness their graduate crossing the
stage, so be respectful.
We’re counting on you to
help make this event one
filled with school and
community pride.
