The administration confirmed that graduation cap decoration is permitted for this year. We have secured the official policy change to ensure all students can personalize their caps for the ceremony.

The Marion High School Class of 2016 is petitioning to be allowed to decorate their graduation caps for the graduation ceremony. Several high schools and a few colleges allow students to decorate their caps in a non-offensive manner that reflects their accomplishments and personalities. Not all seniors have their accomplishments displayed with a stole or cord, so by allowing seniors to decorate their caps all seniors can be recognized.

I have requested a formal meeting with the school administration to present the proposal for graduation cap decorations. We are currently compiling a list of neighboring districts that successfully implemented this policy to demonstrate that it is a manageable administrative adjustment.

My older sister got to do this at her school and she still has her cap on her wall. It means a lot to have a memory like that.
I was allowed to decorate my cap for graduation. It's a form of self expression and makes graduating more enjoyable
JUST LET THEM DECORATE THE CAPS. IT AINT HURTING ANYBODY.
its our big day let us express ourselves a little. just keep it simple and clean and it should be fine.
Freedom of speech for all! That means anywhere, any time. If it is not hate speech or causing harm to anyone it can not be banned!
Let individualism strive!
Great idea to include all seniors! NIce job Sid!
