Preparing for Graduation 2016



Seniors, please make note of the following procedures and information for the Graduation Ceremony.
  1. Participants in the ceremony are required to wear their Ridge View a cap, gown, and tassel.
  2. You must dress appropriately for the graduation ceremony.
    • Females: Dress, skirt, or dress pants in a solid color, dress shoes with a strap around the heel; a hairstyle that allows you to wear the cap.  The ramp is steep, so your heel should be a modest height so that you do not trip or fall on the ramps.
    • Males: Shirt with a collar (preferably white), tie, long dress slacks, and dress shoes with dress socks.
  3. No jewelry is allowed on or outside your graduation gown.  Earrings are permissible but should be modest.
  4. You should carry nothing with you, including phone, purse, stuffed animals, balloons, signs, food, or drink.
  5. Do not embellish or bedazzle your cap and gown.
  6. Only official Ridge View honor cords and stoles may be worn.
  7. Arrive at the Loading Dock entrance of the Colonial Life Arena by 10:45 AM on Wednesday, June 1st.  Allow plenty of time for traffic and parking.  Construction will have some roads closed.
  8. Balloons, signs, and noise makers are not allowed in the arena during graduation.
  9. Graduation officials reserve the right to pull from the line any senior dressed, equipped, or behaving inappropriately
