How to prepare for graduation; helpful tips, specific links for seniors
Tuesday, June 5th at 8:00am, on the AHS Mooneyham Stadium, the class of 2018 will walk across the stage to be awarded their diploma. Graduation, which is the receiving of a diploma, can be the happiest moment for a senior if they complete everything that is required. June 5th, the day of graduation, is quickly approaching and it will be here before you know it.
Most seniors have senioritis by now and have not completed what is required to receive a diploma.
“I am starting to get nervous because I am not sure if I have completed everything that is needed to graduate,” Brantley, an AHS senior, states.
Nick, another AHS senior, says, “Although I cannot wait until the day of graduate, I need to make sure I turn in my decorum sheet.”
As shown, graduation can cause anxiety and each senior has multiple responsibilities in order to graduate.
In just a few easy steps you will be ready to graduate:
