What Should I Wear to Graduation?

Extremely informal attire such as shorts, jeans, and t-shirts are not appropriate for this event. As the graduation is outdoors, students should also make sure to wear weather appropriate attire. The graduation will only be moved indoors due to extremely inclement weather. North will use the same rules as outdoor sporting events to determine if the ceremony will be moved inside.

General admission and indoor seating in the auditorium will be available if your party exceeds 6 attendees. 
For each graduate, there are six (6) numbered wristbands for the Commencement ceremony, 4 blue and 2 white, in the event of severe weather the guests with blue wristbands will be permitted in the dog house, the white are welcome to observe the live stream in the Auditorium. The number on the wristband corresponds to your reserved space in the parking lot. Numbers are drawn at random by your student.
