Graduation Commencement Ceremony
Cap & Gown Protocol
All attire worn under the gown must follow district dress code.
General Cap & Gown Instructions
- Hang up the gown as soon as you get it. Many of the wrinkles will shake out but some pressing may be necessary.
- Students are allowed to wear their cords, medals, or stoles depending upon their involvement in clubs/organizations/honor societies. The cords are passed through the loop in the back of the gown and then hang over the shoulders in front.
- Hawaiian leis are allowed to be worn.
- Native American feathers, beadings and garments are allowed.
- Students are not allowed to carry objects such as, but not limited to, flowers, stuffed animals, air horns, balloons, inflatables, etc.
- Sunglasses may not be worn.
Correct Positioning of Cap
- The long point of the cap goes to the back and the short point is centered on the forehead with the mortarboard level (not tilted).
- The cap is never removed during any part of the ceremony.
- The outside of the cap may be decorated, however if the decorations on the cap are considered inappropriate or cause a distraction, the graduate will be asked to remove and replace their cap.
- The tassel is pinned on the right side of the cap.
The gowns do not need to be returned, but they can be donated for future senior use.
