(ROCKDALE) celebrate the Rockdale High School Class of 2026 this Friday! At this time, we are continuing to monitor the weather closely and are hopeful that graduation can be held at Tiger Stadium as planned. Our goal is to celebrate our graduates outdoors if at all possible.
A final decision regarding the graduation location will be made Friday morning, May 22, during graduation practice.
In the event that weather requires us to move indoors, graduation will be held in the RHS Competition Gym. Due to capacity limitations, the indoor ceremony would become a ticketed event. Each graduate would receive 8 tickets/wristbands at Friday’s practice. Families needing additional tickets will have the opportunity to complete a request form that will be shared through Parent Square closer to Friday, and we will do our best to accommodate requests based on availability.
