dress pair of slacks, dress shoes, socks, and a shirt with a collar. Women are
to wear a dress, skirt, or a dress pair of slacks with an appropriate blouse,
together with the shoes they plan on wearing for the formal ceremonies (a

On
exam days, report directly to your first exam, not to homeroom. Students who
have no first exam do not need to report until the second exam. Those who do
not have a second exam are required to remain in the building until such time
as practice begins.
No
practice will begin until all are accounted for and dressed per instructions.
The later we begin, the later we finish.
No
person is exempt from any practice. Students who absent themselves will be
considered as truant and will be dealt with accordingly.
All
caps are to be worn straight with the brim of the cap being FLAT.
For
all occasions, walk erect, with some poise; especially going to and from the
stage.
Your
tassel should be worn 3 inches from the front of the right-hand side of
the cap.
After
all ceremonies, it is advisable to take your cap and gown home, so that it is
not lost, taken by mistake or misplaced.
It
is suggested that you remove the cap and gown from the box prior to the event
for purposes of checking sizes and to press the gown.
After
receiving your diploma cover, bow to the audience to be recognized and permit
your parents a photo opportunity. THERE
WILL BE NO "peace signs", "clenched fists", "holding
up of the diploma", " curtsey" etc.
You will receive your diploma at the
main office immediately following the graduation ceremonies. You will have 20 minutes, after the ceremony has
ended, to pick up your diploma; after that period of time, your diploma may be
picked up the following day.

Lubeskie.
No
senior will participate in any graduation ceremony unless he/she has satisfied
the retreat requirement as established by the Diocese of Harrisburg.
Inform
parents and guests to REFRAIN FROM
applauding or cheering during the presentation of diplomas as this demeans the
importance of the ceremony together with the person receiving the diploma.
Seats

Mr. Lubeskie prior to the graduation ceremony
