FHS GRADUATION CONTRACT

Behavior and Dress Expectations

This is our 98t^h graduation! The graduation ceremony is a serious occasion put on by the school for the parents and close friends of the graduates. As such, it is a PRIVILEGE for seniors at Fremont to participate in the graduation ceremony. By laying out our expectations here, in advance, we hope to make participation in the ceremony easier for the graduates, promoting an overall positive and pleasant experience.

The rules for participating are not many, but they must all be adhered to strictly. Any violation of the rules will result in the offender being removed from the graduation ceremony, escorted from the field and picked up by a parent to go home.  Any senior who has failed to clear a delinquency or has committed a disciplinary infraction will not be allowed to participate in the ceremony.

Expectations for Graduation Practice: Students will be required to check-in prior to entering the field

Be on time.  Dress comfortable; wear sunscreen/hats, since the turf on the field can get HOT. SCHOOL RULES WILL BE ENFORCED DURING THESE PRACTICES. PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON CAMPUS UNLESS YOU HAVE A VALID FHS 2024 STUDENT PARKING PERMIT.

Seniors will have already been assigned seats prior to graduation practice. No changes can be made. Objectionable objects, as viewed by the graduation committee, will be confiscated and may result in your removal from the ceremony.  Final decisions and approvals must come from Principal Emmert.

STUDENTS WHO ARE TARDY TO PRACTICE WILL BE REMOVED AND THEIR PARTICIPATION IN THE CEREMONY WILL BE JEOPARDIZED. REMEMBER, the START time means you are ready to go! STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN ALL GRADUATION PRACTICES!

Expectations for Graduation Day

Seniors are to be in the large gym NO LATER THAN 5 p.m. graduation day Thursday, June 6.

Graduates will report to the Large Gym, CARRYING THEIR GOWNS IN HAND. Caps may already be in place, but nothing else may be carried into the ceremony. ALL VALUABLES WILL BE LEFT AT HOME! There WILL NOT be a location to store personal items.

DIPLOMAS WILL BE MAILED HOME AFTER THE GRADUATION COMMENCEMENT on the football field - GRADUTES WILL ONLY RECEIVE THEIR DIPLOMA COVERS AT THE CEREMONY.

• No flowers (includes leis), buttons, or pins of any type on cap or gown
• Valedictorian and community service medals ok
• NHS and CSF sashed and cord ok (others can be worn for pictures AFTER ceremony
• No candy, money, or extravagant necklaces

THE GRADUATION COMMITTEE RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DETERMINE PROPER GRADUATION ATTIRE.

Parking

Our 98^th FHS graduation will take on Thursday, June 6 at 6 p.m. on Diesner Field (FHS football field). Parking is open in the front, back, and district parking lots.  Parking will fill up quickly so we encourage all to arrive early. Seating for spectators is first come, first served—gates will open at 5 p.m. Friends and families are encouraged to meet the graduates in the amphitheater area following the ceremony. The field will not be open to the public.
