Upcoming Break
Student IDs - Student FREE Admission to Home Games
As we continue to promote a safe and positive environment at our athletic events, we are updating our entry procedures for all home games.
Beginning immediately, all middle school and high school students must present their student ID at the gate to receive free admission to Graham athletic events. Their ID will be scanned for free entry to the event. An adult must accompany Pre K-5 students, who will continue to receive free admission to Graham Athletic Events.
Please note the following important details:
Students in grades PreK–5 will not have district-issued IDs, but must be accompanied by an adult at all athletic events.
Middle school and high school students must show their student ID at the gate for free entry.
If a student does not have their ID, they will be required to pay the student ticket price for admission.
If a student loses their ID and needs a new one, a $10.00 fee will be charged to their student account.
This process helps us ensure that Graham students are receiving the free admission benefit and that our events remain safe and enjoyable for everyone.
We appreciate your cooperation and support as we continue to build Falcon pride and maintain a great game-day experience for our community.
** GMS students will receive their IDs on Thursday, 11/13 during Homeroom. If the student was absent for picture day, they will receive them shortly after retakes on 11/17.
