Information and Reminders

Place:

Graduations will be held in the gym. Entrance will be through the gates by the teacher parking lot.

Pre-Registration:

Parents were highly encouraged to complete the pre-registration form for their child's graduation for a faster check-in. This was due by May 15. If you didn't pre-register, no problem. There will be two lines, one for parents who completed pre-registration, and another line for parents who did not (there will be some wait time). Parents can select early check out for their child to help the check out process.

Check-in:

Doors will open at:

- 9:00 a.m. for kinder graduation

- 12:15 p.m. for Rise and Life Skills

-1:00 p.m. for 4th grade

Parents are invited to attend and must check into the school with their ID. Check-in table will be located at the gate by the teacher parking lot (weather permitting).

Check-out:

Parents are allowed to check out their students if they request a check-out ticket upon checking-in.

A NOTE FOR YOU: ID’s are required to enter campus for the ceremonies and to check-out students.

Siblings at Runyan:

As you may be aware, Runyan is growing rapidly. Due to limited space, siblings are not allowed to be pulled from instruction to attend a ceremony/graduation.

Pictures:

After graduations are complete, families will have about 15 minutes to take pictures with their student inside the gym.

Check-out procedures:

We expect a large audience for our graduations. We appreciate your patience as we try to dismiss students in a safe manner.

Once picture time is over, an announcement will be made:

• 4th students will return back to their teachers
• Kinder students, parents please walk your child to their teachers

• All parents will stay in the gym
  
• Then all students will return to their classrooms
• Parents picking up students at regular dismissal time will be allowed to leave
• Parents picking up students after the ceremony will line up and will show their ticket to a staff member in the gym
• A staff member will call teachers to send students to the gym with their backpack.
• Staff will direct students to meet their parents in the courtyard near the gym,
• On their way out through the gate, the parent must hand the check-out ticket to the staff member
• ONLY parents with tickets are allowed to check their students out from the gym, others will be directed to the front office

We appreciate your patience as we ensure a safe dismissal for all of our students. We look forward to celebrating these milestones with our students and families!
