Welcome to your last year of high school class of 2021!
Grad 2020 was definitely different, but wow was it a success! The drive-thru was full of memorable moments; from semi-trucks to school buses, and vintage cars we saw it all. We didn't know if we were going to be able to celebrate the students and the hard work of the 2020 grad class, but the feedback for the drive-thru grad was overwhelmingly positive. Thank you to all who participated, or helped to make the day happen.

Grad 2021 STOP reading, the info below does NOT apply to your grad.
The information below pertains to a traditional grad ceremony and celebration NOT what is happening for Grad 2021.
The tickets will be distributed to each eligible graduate in TA/LS beginning MAY 8th, and every Wednesday following as students become eligible.
If you are graduating but not in the building this semester (RAP, finished early, part-time, etc) please pick up your ceremony tickets in the office starting May 8th.
Common reasons for NOT being able to receive your Afternoon Ceremony tickets:
Grad Eligibility: The eligibility list is posted.
Planning - Due to decorations becoming standardized, less student involvement in required. If you are interested in helping out with Grad please see Ms. Roberts or Ms. Williams for additional information regarding Grad Planning Committee. The first meeting is TBA at lunch in room 202. Listen for announcements. All Grade 12’s are welcome to attend!
Every SHS grad will receive 6 Ceremony tickets for their guests to be able to attend the afternoon Ceremony on May 23th. Separate tickets will be required for each event (Ceremony & Celebration). Because each Graduate will receive only 6 guest tickets to the Ceremony, they are encouraged to ask each other for unused tickets. If not all graduates require 6 Ceremony tickets, more tickets may be released at a later date on a first come, first served basis. Graduates do not need a ticket for themselves. Tickets are required to attend the Ceremony this year in order to comply with fire code regulations and not exceed the capacity of the gym (even children will require a ticket).
On the board outside the Art Room 202 you will find information about Grad 2020 as well as a place to post if you NEED tickets, or HAVE tickets for the afternoon ceremony. Please fill out the Extra Ticket cards with your GHSD email address, name, and the number of tickets you need or have.
Strathmore High School hosts a celebration in the evening on the day of grad. There will be a grand march, a number of speeches, a dance, and a dessert buffet. Doors open for the evening celebration at 6pm, the grand march starts at 7:30.
Graduates do not need a ticket for themselves, however their guests and escort (if not a graduate) do. Tickets for guests for the evening celebration cost $15 ea. with children under 3 free. Graduates are guaranteed to purchase up to 6 tickets. If not all graduates require 6 tickets, more tickets may be released at a later date on a first come, first served basis, once announced.
Tickets to the grand march and evening celebration will be available for purchase starting MAY 6th. Due to capacity regulations, each student is able to purchase a maximum of 6 tickets at this time. Tickets must be purchased by noon on May 14th. Should there be a surplus of tickets available, more tickets will be released at 8am on May 15th and be available until 10pm on May 15th.
You will be able to buy Evening Celebration tickets with CASH on May 7th at lunch in room 114.
