JUST WAIT...New Prague’s elementary students will cheer you on, give you high fives, and share in your excitement for graduation!

You will return after the Senior Stroll to attend graduation practice.  Following graduation practice, you can attend the senior barbecue put on by Administration and New Prague Police Department.

LAST DAY FOR SENIORS:  TUESDAY, MAY 25

Graduation practice is Tuesday, May 25 in the high school gym following The Senior Stroll to the elementary schools. We are estimating that the start time of graduation practice is 11:00 a.m.  All seniors participating in ceremony must be at practice.

The school and local law enforcement will serve lunch in the Community Center parking lot following the practice.

  Graduation Live Stream

Family Members/Grandparents/Visitors:

• New Prague High School conducts a formal graduation ceremony.
• The doors will open at 6:00 p.m. Seating is first come first serve for both indoors and outdoors including handicapped seating.
• Graduation is a ticketed event.

Outdoor Ceremony

• We will have preferred seating in two sections of the "home" bleachers.  This section is directly behind the graduates and provides the most direct view of the ceremony. This space is limited.
• Each graduate received 3 gray tickets.
• Only this preferred seating will require a ticket. 
• The other 2 sections of the "home" bleachers and any other seating in the stadium will NOT require a ticket. There is plenty of space for all who wish to attend.  Only the preferred seating space is ticketed.
• We are hoping that this preferred seating will give parents a great spot to view the graduation of their son/daughter.
• The High School Auditorium will be open to watch the live stream of graduation regardless if it is outdoors or indoors.  This air conditioned area will NOT require a ticket and will be first come, first serve.

Indoor Ceremony (in event of inclement weather)

• Graduation is held in the main gym.
• Each graduate received 5 red tickets (can only be used for indoor ceremony).  You must have a red ticket to enter the gym.
• With over 320 graduates, seating is limited in the gym so tickets are necessary.
• The High School Auditorium will be open to watch the live stream of graduation regardless if it is outdoors or indoors.  This air conditioned area will NOT require a ticket and will be first come, first serve.

Both sets of tickets were mailed to each graduate’s house in late April. There is no fee for the tickets. Networking with other members of the Class of 2019 is encouraged if you need additional tickets. New Prague High School will NOT be able to provide extra tickets upon request.
