Commencement is a formal academic ceremony. Courteous behavior of all guests is necessary for a dignified graduation ceremony. Loud, boisterous behavior, including air horns, detracts from the ceremony and can prohibit the audience from hearing their family member's name being announced as they walk across the stage and receive his/her diploma. As a courtesy to all CHS graduates and their guests, please stay seated until the ceremony ends. The last graduate to cross the stage is as important as the first.

We look forward to sharing Commencement with the friends and families of the class of 2024, an observance that will reflect the significance of their accomplishments and the pride we all feel for them.

GUESTS

• The two big gates on either side of the ticket booth on the home side will be opened at 6:30 pm. (saving seats is not allowed)

• Each graduate may have 15 guests sitting on the home side and additional guests will sit on the visitor side.  This ensures that immediate family members have a front view of the stage. Any additional guests will be allowed to sit on the visitor’s side of the stadium.

• Upon entering the stands, volunteers will assist if you need help or have questions. 

• Volunteers will be dedicated to assisting our handicapped guests; you may reserve a seat by contacting Mrs. Debbie Grace, Counselor. Please let the gate worker know if you need any other special assistance.

GRADUATES

• Graduates need to arrive at 7:00 pm.

• Graduates will enter the gate by the new 9th-grade locker room with their cap and gown.

• The mortarboard tassel starts on the RIGHT. 

• Remember, wear stable shoes for walking on the turf, no spike-type heels.

• Please line up on the inside of the fence in the same order as practice.

• The Grad Bash buses will depart exactly at 10:30 pm, so arrive by 10:15 pm. This is a great time to celebrate with your class all together at one time. Waiver forms must be turned in to Darla Meisinger to be able to attend. The buses will return at approximately 5:00 am.
