In case of inclement weather, the Graduation Ceremony will be held in the WP Jr./Sr. HS gym with SIX spectator tickets issued per graduate. On Wednesday morning, we will review the weather forecast for Friday's ceremony. If inclement weather is anticipated, tickets will be distributed to graduates during rehearsal as a precautionary measure. However, we will wait until Thursday evening to make a final decision regarding any changes to the event. Graduates will be notified of any updates through IC.
