School staff briefed board members — especially newer members — on graduation logistics and what to expect when attending the ceremony.
Denise, a board member, asked whether there’s a schedule; staff member Justin said details will be emailed in a flurry and that board members usually receive parking passes, arrival times, and seating instructions. Board members were told to expect assigned seating on stage, a holding room before the ceremony, and that the event typically runs about two hours.
The briefing included practical tips: keep phones silent while on stage, bring tissues, and consider layering clothing for variable temperatures. A board member referenced past graduations where weather affected hair and comfort and encouraged members to plan accordingly.
Next steps: Staff will email the full graduation schedule, seating assignments and any additional instructions to board members before the ceremony. There was no formal action recorded related to graduation.
