PHS Graduation Update
What is Virtual Graduation?
I would like to provide some clarity on the concept of virtual graduation. I will begin by apologizing for not being clear with what this will look like before now. The process for producing this has come about fast, and we are learning as we go. I will cover the who, what, when, and where of what virtual graduation will look like.
The virtual graduation will be a pre-recorded professional-grade video. In a lot of ways, it will resemble the components of our regular commencement ceremony. We will have introductions, and the senior class president will be the master of ceremony. We will have music numbers, student speeches, keynote speakers, the senior slideshow, and a roll call of each graduate.
Who: All the student speakers, musicians, dignitaries, and staff speakers involved will record their parts on April 24th.
What: We need each graduate's Bio's that should be completed on the google doc titled, Class of 2020 Roll Call. For the convenience of a one-stop drop, you may also post your picture in your cap and gowns (preferably) on the google doc as well. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1H9NycUoGQDS4LL7wjgFqkqh_8luAFeflXLCtMTD-_E4
Expectations for graduation pictures and participation is in the Graduation letter to parents document below.
If you are struggling with the google doc, you can also send your picture to Mrs. Grover at Jolene.Grover@matsuk12.us
When: We will air the broadcast link on the originally scheduled date for graduation on Tuesday, May 12th at 7:00 pm.
Where: The link will be available in various locations. The district will provide the link, and we will plan to make it available on our Palmer High website and Facebook page.
If you did not pick up your cap and gown, or you need one call the school between 7:00 am and 3:00 pm to make an appointment to pick them up. You can call Mrs. Smith at 746-8429.
As always we are here and available for you if you have any questions or problems that arise. Call 746-8400 or 746-8409 to leave a voicemail.
Go Moose!!
Mr. Reid
