After consulting with the local Emergency Management Agency and the National Weather Service and due to the expected rainfall on Friday, May 16th and Saturday, May 17th, the decision has been made to hold this year’s Graduation Ceremony at the UGA Conference Center. While we know that this is not the ideal situation, we feel that it is in the best interest of our graduates and their families and allows us to provide a quality ceremony for our students.
The processional will begin at 8:45 am. The ceremony can be viewed via live stream at: https://youtube.com/live/QGHAT5SjSok?feature=share.
Due to limited seating inside the auditorium, each graduate will be allowed 4 guests. Tickets will be distributed to the graduates at their mandatory practice on Thursday morning. Guests will not be allowed into the UGA Conference Center without a ticket.
Gates at the Conference Center will open at 7:30 am. Due to how seating will be arranged, all guests must be seated in the auditorium no later than 8:40 am BEFORE the processional begins. This will ensure the processional is not disrupted due to late arrivals. The main entrance will be locked and anyone who is not seated at this time will be directed to enter through the north entrance to be seated in the designated overflow area to view the ceremony via live stream.
Please remember that this ceremony is about the graduates. To ensure all students get “their moment” to have their name called out and be seen by their loved ones, no noise makers, confetti, balloons, signs, etc. are allowed inside the auditorium. Audience members are asked to hold their cheering until the time allotted for applause at the end of each section.
Additional information, as it is available, will be posted at: https://tchs.tiftschools.com/o/tchs/page/graduation-information
