Thursday, June 56:00 pm - SHS Gym

 

All students participating in the Senior Recognition/Capping Ceremony will meet in the SHS library no later than 5:30 pm. Graduation cap, tassel, gown and SHS stole will be worn over the clothing.The Ceremony will mark a senior’s academic achievement and continued commitment to learning. Each graduating senior will choose a special person – parent, grandparent, teacher, or friend – to place the cap upon his or her head. This will be a personal ceremony where the student may only invite their parents/guardians, grandparents, siblings, and one friend. Seniors will be issued tickets for only those they invite.

Senior Recognition is designed to recognize each senior for their academic achievements during the year. It will include numerous academic honors such as National Honor Society, Senior Project, Distinguished Plan, Honor Graduate, Top Ten Percent, Salutatorian and Valedictorian. College, state and local scholarships will be announced. Those who have enlisted in the armed services will be recognized.
