Congratulations to the parents of the class of 2009:

 

 

Graduation ceremonies will be held on Friday, June 12, 2009 at 8:15 p.m. at Harrison Stadium.  The gates will open at 6:30 p.m.  There will be seating on both sides of the stadium, in order to accommodate the number of guests that attend the ceremony.  Please ask your graduate where they are sitting, so that you are able to sit on the same side of the stadium.  Please advise staff at the entrance, if you have any special needs such as wheelchair access.  There is limited seating in this area, therefore, only one person may accompany a person with special needs.

 

We wanted you to be aware that there are some issues that can keep your son or daughter from taking part in the ceremony.  They are as follows:

 

1.      Must pass their classes and the Exit Exam.  Students who are exempt from the Exit Exam requirement will receive a Certificate of Completion.

2.      Must pay their bills by May 29th.

3.      Must turn their signed contracts into the attendance office by May 29th.

4.      Must agree to be searched prior to entering the ceremony on graduation night.

5.      Must attend the graduation practice at Harrison Stadium at 8:30 a.m. on June 12, 2009

6.      Must report to the National Guard Armory on Pomona St. before 7:30 p.m. 

7.      Pursuant to the OUHSD Discipline Plan, seniors who are suspended for certain Education Code violations will not be permitted to participate in graduation ceremonies.

8.      If students are found in possession of inappropriate materials, they will not participate in the graduation ceremony.

 

 

We appreciate your support with this important event.

 

Sincerely,
