District to Make Some Adjustments to Graduation Schedule for Class of 2021
PHILADELPHIA, PA — The School District of Philadelphia recognizes that high school graduation is a significant milestone and is committed to celebrating our graduating seniors with a commencement ceremony. Our principals and staff have worked tirelessly to create safe opportunities for in-person graduations to take place this week. Due to the forecast calling for severe, inclement weather June 9 -11, the District is offering schools options that take safety precautions into consideration to allow for an in-person graduation where possible. Principals will be making decisions on what is best for their respective school communities and will be communicating directly with families regarding any changes in venues or implementation of rain dates as soon as possible.
