GRADUATION TICKETS:

Our plan is to hold graduation outside in the Beaver Stadium. Spectators will NOT need a ticket to attend and seniors can invite as many quests as they would like. If the weather doesn't permit that, we will move the ceremony indoors to our main gym. The weather will be called during the week of graduation.

  • In that case, each senior will be provided with six (6) tickets for guests. We will live-stream the ceremony to the high school commons and overflow seating will be provided in that location.
  • A link to the live stream will also be available on the high school website for anyone who is interested in watching the ceremony but unable to attend. The link will be available on the day of graduation. 

Senior Grad Party Information: As always, details regarding the Senior Grad Party are not revealed (other than it is alcohol-free and chaperoned). However, if you have specific questions, please reach out to Sharon Conditt via email at conditts@woodlandschools.org. Permission slips are available in the office.
