As promised, we are working on plans to host an in-person graduation for your student; however, we have had to make some minor adjustments. Instead of the school gymnasiums, we will be hosting our Class of 2020 Commencement Ceremonies at Sharp Stadium. We will not be able to conduct three graduations in one day at the stadium. As a result, the Newton High School Graduation Ceremony is now scheduled for Friday, July 31 at 8:00 p.m. Both Alcovy and Eastside will host graduations on Saturday, August 1, 2020. Alcovy High School’s graduation will begin at 8:00 a.m. with Eastside’s scheduled to start at 8:00 p.m. Sunday, August 2 will serve as our rain date in the event of a weather cancellation.
So that we may finalize our plans, we ask that you complete our registration form to let us know if you and your student will or will not be participating in the graduation ceremony. The link is below:

The deadline to complete the registration form is Tuesday, July 14, 2020 by 1:00 p.m..
Unfortunately, due to the increase in cases of COVID-19, it is not practical or safe to conduct a prom at this time. Please reach out to your school principal for specific instructions on refunds.
