What to know about Graduation in my town.

Found this all out the hard way. By experiencing a graduation first hand. To start off with 500 kids means two very full stands in a stadium and lots of people getting there early to snatch up the prime spots. So if your kid is supposed to be there at 1:30, you needed to have a squatter there at noon to noon:30.

Bring something to sit on. The metal aluminum bench dissapates heat from your bum quickly.

Figure out how you are going to get your kid afterwards BEFORE you let him head into the crowd.

I'll add to that a little:
I have to find out how they got the scholarship info in the program. Trevor earned scholarships, but they weren't noted.

Buy a page in the yearbook. If your kid isn't on the Yearbook Staff, or tight with them, they're not going to show up much. Parents can purchase a page or partial page to dedicate with photos & such.

What I did do right: Got the Grad Night ticket for him. He had a blast :)
