Dear Addams Families,
As we approach spring, we wanted to provide an update on the eighth-grade graduation ceremony. We are excited to announce that this year’s event will be held from 2:30 to 3:30 pm on Sunday, June 2, 2024 at Wintrust Field, also known as the Schaumburg Boomers Stadium.
In order to accommodate all families, we will be limiting each family to six tickets. Students will sit on the field with their classmates, while families will sit in the stands. In the event of rain, we will hold our graduation ceremony on Monday, June 3, at 5:30 pm at Hoffman Estates High School. Either way, the last day of school for eighth-grade students will be Friday, May 31. District 211 summer school classes start on June 3 and we want to ensure our eighth-graders can participate in those classes.
A livestream of the event will be posted to the District 54 YouTube Channel for individuals who are unable to be there that day. All students’ names will be read during the ceremony, whether or not they attend.
If your child is participating in the ceremony at Wintrust Field, they will be asked to purchase a gown and keepsake medallion to be worn at the ceremony. We will be sending payment information home soon.
In order to create a memorable experience, we would like to start by asking you to complete this quick Graduation Ceremony Survey by Monday, April 1, 2024, to determine which students will be participating and how many tickets you will need.
Thank you for your quick response to this survey. Please continue to read my weekly emails as I will continue to share additional information this spring about graduation and other end-of-the-year celebrations.
