Tickets
Also at cap and gown distribution, students will receive 6 tickets to the graduation ceremony for friends and family. Everyone over the age of 4 must have a ticket to attend graduation. If you aren’t using all of your tickets, please share them with a classmate who needs extra.
Parking
Students should park at First Presbyterian Church of Annandale in the morning, entering the school through the back gate. Handicapped parking is available in the back parking lot by the concession stand. There is limited parking available on school grounds. Guest parking is available on Four Year Run, at Ossian Park, in the adjacent neighborhood. Please plan on arriving at the stadium no later than 8:20am.
Expectations and Dress Code
It is Annandale High School’s tradition to treat our graduation as a formal ceremony. By doing so we ensure that every student receives the respect and acclaim he or she has earned. Thus, formal attire is required for graduation.
Formal attire includes dresses, a suit or dress slacks with a collared shirt, and appropriate shoes. No high heels will be permitted as it may puncture the turf field.
The tassel is the only thing to be worn on the cap, and nothing is to be attached to the gown (e.g. flowers, messages, etc.). No objects should be carried onto the stage.
Inappropriate behavior anytime during the ceremony, will result in the immediate removal of the student from the event. Any student removed from graduation will be issued their diploma at a later date, pending an appointment with their administrator.
Photos
Lifetouch will take photos of each graduate as they receive their diploma and when they immediately come off stage. These photos will be available for purchase at https://events.lifetouch.com.
Live Stream
The ceremony will be livestreamed and available for viewing at this link: tinyurl.com/Annandale2022. In addition, copies of the recording are also available for purchase.
