they actually listened and moved the ceremony to the football field which honestly feels like such a huge relief. I am still processing the fact that we managed to pull this off after all the back and forth with the administration in the office. definitely keep checking the school bulletins …

I was just looking at the count and we are really creeping up on that next milestone which honestly feels kind of surreal since I started this just to see if anyone else was annoyed about the stuffy gym. If we can get a few more people to jump on board before the meeting then maybe they will finally take us seriously instead of just assuming we are complaining for no reason.

I am a St. Francis graduate of 1995. Outdoor grad ceremonies are so much more enjoyable than indoor. 1995 was held outdoors.

Graduation should be outside, weather permitting. Inside graduation is cramped, limited seating, hot and claustrophobic. Please let our graduates have their ceremony outside, allowing for parents, siblings, grandparents and other relatives to also watch the special occasion!

4 tickets per graduate is not nearly enough. Many families have more than that. That would not include friends..you need to bend . DO NOT HOLD THE CEREMONY INSIDE!!

Another outside vote!! Lots of people supported my graduate and would love to be able to watch him! (Not on TV screen in a hallway!!)

I've waited all of my high school and middle school career to graduate outside. To be stuffed inside a hot gym will not be a celebration to me

The kids deserve to have their families at the Graduation Ceremony! We have Aunts and Uncles coming from out of state!
