Parents and guardians of William Floyd High School seniors are being urged to begin preparations for the upcoming graduation ceremony scheduled for June 28, 2025. A key part of these preparations involves ordering caps, gowns, and tassels, which will be worn during the commencement exercises.
A representative from the cap and gown company will be available at the school on January 14 and 15 to measure students. Ordering will take place during lunch periods from 8:50 am to 12:46 pm in the senior cafeteria hallway. These are the only dates available for placing orders. In case a student is absent, arrangements can be made with a classmate to place an order on their behalf, provided they know the student's height and weight.
Each graduating student will receive a package containing a cap, gown, and tassel. The cost for this package is $33, payable at the time of ordering. Payment must be made in cash or by money order payable to Herff Jones, Inc., as checks will not be accepted. No refunds will be given for any items ordered.
Lisa M. Pisano, Assistant Principal at William Floyd High School, emphasized that "only those seniors wearing the appropriate cap and gown will be permitted to participate in the graduation ceremony." Parents are encouraged to ensure their children order on January 14 or January 15 and complete all academic requirements necessary for graduation.
Receipt of this letter does not guarantee participation in the ceremony; eligibility depends on maintaining good standing throughout the year.
