Each graduate will be given 10 tickets for parents/guests to attend the outdoor ceremony. Seniors will be responsible for distributing their 10 tickets to their guests. Four inclement weather tickets will be given to students in the event that weather forces the ceremony indoors to the CHS Main Gym.
