The administration changed the graduation date back to the original schedule because we pushed them to listen. Keep your eyes on the school board portal to ensure no other surprise changes happen before the ceremony.

Graduation was May 12th according to tradition. Now it is May 19th, which is conflicting with many non-refundable vacations, family visits, invitations, and graduation parties. On top of that, there is soccer districts and baseball districts on the 19th. Help us change our date back by signing this petition.

Please change the date back, this will be to difficult for our established schedule.
We already booked our hotel and flights based on the original date. This is a huge mess for families coming in from out of town!
If things have been ordered and vacations planned changing now for something that falls like this often is a little silly. 2014 - districts was the next day and my son graduated on Friday night and ran the next day in Carl Junction.
Come on Monett. This is stupid changing graduation. It's causing more problems on the 19th!!! Change it back!
This change creates a hardship for work and family planning. Change the date back to May 12th or 13th.
Plane tickets have been purchased parties have been planned!
Fix the problem and keep the original date.

Leave everyone eligible to participate in, not only a very special gathering, but the last gathering of all these seniors in the same room together.
