GRADUATION PLANS:
Giles High School graduation has been set for Saturday, June 6, 2020 on the front lawn of Giles High School starting at 9am. Due to restrictions, each senior will graduate individually at a set time. Each senior can have 2 vehicles, and only 4 people can exit the vehicle, with the graduate to walk in the ceremony, others must stay with the vehicle. We realize this is not the way anyone wants graduation to occur. Our seniors and their families deserve better, but under the circumstances we are extremely limited in what we can do, and still have as many people present to have a personal graduation. We have worked to provide our seniors the most intimate and meaningful ceremony we can with the requirements we must adhere to. We will be in contact with each family of seniors in the coming days to make certain you are clear on the details of the event. Thank you for your understanding.
Details for parents and students. Once your specified time is given you should arrive in the Teacher’s Parking Lot, no earlier than 5 minutes prior to your designated graduation time, (times will be sent separately), please come dressed and have a family member assist you in making sure you are picture ready while waiting the 5 minutes until you take your spot in the ceremony.
A photographer will be present and 2 photos will be purchased by the school for each graduate at no cost to the family. WNRV will be present, we ask that all graduates prepare a few sentences to be read, understand these may be edited for time or content. These statements may be emailed to Mr. Hollar, only those received by Monday June 1st will be considered. In addition, we are planning to broadcast on Facebook Live.
A parade is being planned, it has not yet been approved by the Pearisburg Town Council or Department of Transportation. Should the parade take place it will begin at King Johnston Community Center at 2pm, please be lined up by that time. Terry Fleeman will lead with the train horn. Once approved, communication about the route will be sent out.
Baccalaureate and Senior Slide Show will be uploaded on the schools web page by the evening of June 1st.
Speeches, Distinguished Graduates please get your speeches turned in.
If you have any questions please contact Mr. Hollar or Ms. Boggess at Giles High School, or via email.
