Graduation Tickets
Tickets will be distributed during Senior Clearance. Ticket seating is completed through a randomizer, as this is NOT general seating. We will NOT switch, select, or hold tickets. The graduate does not need a ticket to the ceremony and children under two years old do not need a ticket but must sit on the lap of an adult. Keep your tickets in a safe location, as they will be needed to enter the Amway.

If you have any questions regarding your cap and gown or have not ordered a cap and gown yet please contact Herff-Jones as soon as possible. Their office number is 407-647-4373. Students are not allowed to decorate their caps.
Attire Under Graduation Gown & Cap Details
● Please wear business professional attire (dress, skirt & blouse, collared dress shirt, tie, slacks, etc.) and dress shoes (recommended to wear closed-toe shoes, and shoes that you have practiced walking in).
