Attention Seniors:
Dear Seniors and Families,
We have redesigned the Commencement scheduled for June 4th to take advantage of the latest EO that increased the outdoor gathering size to 100. At their allotted time, parents will accompany their graduates into the building to record their message and then rejoin the rest of their family outside the building at the main entryway where the graduate’s name will be announced. The graduate will receive their diploma presented by a board member in front of their family. This allows all family members the chance to be present when their graduate’s diploma is presented.
After receiving their diploma the family and graduate will make their way over to another area for photos. After photos, we are asking that the family proceed to exit the campus in order to keep the gathering size within the EO.
All speeches will be filmed in the gymnasium and JTV will still film the ceremony to be aired at a later time.
The LiveStream will be set-up outside to capture the graduates receiving their diplomas.
We look forward to seeing you on Thursday

Attention Seniors:
We are currently reviewing the details of Governor Whitmer's latest EO to see if we are able to legally expand the number of family members who may be present in the gymnasium for Thursday's Ceremony. We will advise soon.
