Until about six years ago the Clear Creek HS graduations were held at U of H..cannot remember the building. Not sure why that changed.Belmer wrote:txflagwaver wrote:Trying to have graduation at 7:30 in League City...OUTSIDE.

Hope all went well at Graduation this evening. I graduated from Deer Park High School in 2011 at our football stadium where it is held every year. When I graduated on June 3, 2011 there wasn't a cloud in the sky and it was a hot, muggy 90+ degrees outside and that was with it being 7pm. I have three older brothers who all graduated from DP as well outside. 2004, 2005 and 2008 were dry as well for those ceremonies. And I don't recall there being any rain in the 06, 07, 09, 10 ceremonies either. I know all schools have different graduation days, but luckily, Deer Park's graduations have been lucky when it comes to rain. Heat, not so much. However, Deer Park's graduation this week was scheduled for Thursday, but due to the severe weather, it got postponed to Friday. If weather didn't cooperate then, it would have to be moved inside the school in a gym. If that were to happen, only two people per student are invited (mom and dad usually). There would have been a lot of upset, disappointed folks if that were to happen. DPISD is a very large district. Each graduation class is near or above 1,000 students.
Anyway, depending on the district, I'm sure graduations have to be held outside depending on size of the class and all the relatives and friends that attend. Small towns usually have graduations inside.
Lots of noise and wind, but much ado about nothing evidently. mckinne63 wrote:Not much here in Stafford.
