Commencement is at 5:00 PM on Thursday, May 25, in the Memorial Gymnasium.

A few thousand people will be in attendance at Commencement. The parking lots on school grounds cannot accommodate more than 350 cars.

Our graduating seniors must leave their cars at home and travel to the graduation with their family members or guests.

This will allow additional parking in our school lot for graduate families and guests.

The only entrance to the school lot will be from Hampshire Street. The Lawrence Police Department will maintain a presence to assist cars entering and parking in the lot as well as pedestrians crossing Hampshire Street. They will ensure that all access ways to the school are clear for emergency vehicles. The police will direct cars with handicapped plates to park in handicap spots and the bus lane in front of the school. Students are to wear their cap/gowns and arrive in the courtyard no later than 4:00 PM.

The Commencement Exercises are held in the Memorial Gymnasium.

A live simulcast of the entire ceremony can be viewed in our air-conditioned Allan B. Rogers Memorial Theater for guests who prefer more comfortable seating than the bleachers or floor seats in the Gymnasium.

The ceremony will also be livestreamed for relatives and friends at home.
