May 6, 2008 – Senior Robing Ceremony – 7:00 p.m. – Auditorium
What is a Robing Ceremony? This is a question asked each spring so I will try to give you an explanation. The Robing Ceremony is the first time caps and gowns are handed out to the seniors. It is an opportunity for someone of importance, in the senior’s life, to help them put on their cap and gown for the first time. The senior asks the individual(s) they want to robe them to be present. The person selected might be their parents, grandparents, sibling, coach, teacher, or other person they feel has had a significant influence on their life. The senior and the person(s) robing the senior line up in the hall to walk in to the auditorium together. We have a very short program. Then begin calling the seniors and the person(s) robing to the stage a row at a time. You return to your seat and the process continues with the next row until all have had the opportunity to be robed. We ask you to limit pictures to one or two while on stage at the time you robe the senior. After the ceremony is complete, everyone is invited to come on stage and take all the group pictures they would like to take. Often, this is the only opportunity or time when you are able to get pictures of your son/daughter and his/her friends in their cap and gown.
