Greetings LOHS Class of 2020 Families:
Now that seniors have received their graduation regalia, we are ready to share another update regarding the Class of 2020 Graduation Ceremony.
As previously communicated, LOHS decided to delay our graduation until late July with the intent of being able to deliver an in-person (rather than a “virtual” or “drive through”) commencement experience, if possible under current COVID-19 restrictions, as requested by the majority of our graduates.
We have further refined our graduation plans, and we are proud to announce that the LOHS Class of 2020 Graduation Ceremony will be on Thursday, July 30.
The anticipated venue for this celebration will be the LOHS Field House (gymnasium).
At this point, we do not have enough information to announce a specific format or time-of-day for the event; these details will be communicated when we have a better understanding of what will be permitted under the Governor’s executive orders. We can share that while we are optimistic that an in-person experience will be possible, we are preparing for all possible scenarios, including a “hybrid” in-person and livestreamed event.
The web page LakeOrionSchools.org/ClassOf2020 has additional resources related to graduation. Please be sure to reference it for updated information and activities for seniors. We are currently asking that seniors submit a photo of themselves in their cap and gown using the Cap and Gown photo submissions button.
Thank you for your continued patience and support as we attempt to provide the best conclusion possible to our students’ high school careers. Protect the Thunder! Point Positive!
Sincerely,
Dan Haas, Ph.D.
Interim Principal
Lake Orion High School
