- Each graduate can have up to 3 cars of guests.
- When a graduate’s car approaches the stage, they will exit the car and walk across the stage.
- A professional photographer will be there to take photos and live stream to Facebook
- They will then get back into their car and exit the parade flow.
- Graduates should wear their cap and gown!
- Suggestions:
- Decorate your car with posters, balloons, car paint, etc. (so long as you’re safe on the road!)
- Honk your horn! Make noise for your graduate! This is a celebration!
- Connect with family and friends prior to coming to the graduation parade; you must arrive with your guests
Safety precautions
- All family and guests must remain in their vehicles at all times
- Only graduates will be allowed to exit their vehicles
- Graduates are not required to wear a face mask to walk across the stage; all other staff and guests must have on face coverings
- Graduates will receive a plastic bag that will contain:
- Instructions for graduation

- Any special recognition cords and medals with instructions for how to wear these recognitions
- Graduates will receive their own Sharpie pen to sign their Class of 2020 banner
