District News: End-of-school events for seniors are set

The Whitehall High School senior class breakfast and cap and gown distribution will be 8-10 a.m. May 31, followed by a senior parade, weather permitting, 10-11 a.m. on the Whitehall-Coplay School District campus. All parents/guardians and families are invited to the parade. There is no rain date.

Students will wear their gowns and walk around campus to the elementary and middle schools as a final goodbye to the campus before preparing for graduation. They will leave WHS around 10 a.m.

Students who have outstanding obligations will not be able to receive their cap and gown or participate in the parade until obligations are cleared.

WCSD has set aside a special parent viewing area to see the senior class during the parade. Park in the stadium parking lot and gather along the parade route as the seniors pass by after visiting the schools.

There will be road closures during this event, so enter campus from Schadt Avenue and Campus Drive to the parking lot. Do not gather at the elementary and middle schools to allow enough room for the younger students.
