Graduating seniors will be socially distanced on the football field in the Ollie Cook Stadium. A stage will be set up on the track for a variety of speakers. Due to state guidelines limited the number of participants, families will not be allowed to attend. A parade through Phelps and Clifton Springs will follow the ceremony.

Midlakes Principal Frank Bai-Rossi will recognize every senior by calling their and announcing any scholarships or academic awards while on the senior walks across the stage. There will be two times when the student will pause on stage for photos. Students and other speakers scheduled to appear in the ceremony will be pre-recorded.

Due to state and public health guidance, the Virtual Gradation Ceremony will be limited to registered guests and groups of up to six (6) individuals. Welcome guests and staff stationed at the school will help to sure social distancing, masks and group sizes are maintained.

Yes. The District plans to make a variety of photos available to families in the days following the June 27 outdoor ceremony. Check back here for more.

Definitely! There will be time to take photos and short videos during the Virtal Ceremony before entering the auditorium, as seniors walk the stage and for a short time after. However, we ask families not to linger too long so every family may have the same opportunity. Cameras will be allowed at the outdoor ceremony.

Midlakes families and the community will be able to view the both graduation events on Midlakes.org and on the Midlakes Schools YouTube Channel soon after the outdoor ceremony.
