El Dorado High School Graduation Ceremony will take place this evening at Memorial Stadium beginning at 8pm.
In the case of inclement weather, graduation will be held in the El Dorado High School Wildcat Arena at 8:30pm.
Graduation is a ticketed event. Each person attending graduation, regardless of age, must have a ticket. This includes a child that would sit on a lap. Each graduate received 5 tickets for the arena and 11 tickets for the stadium at graduation practice this morning. These tickets are separate and cannot be used interchangeably.
We are monitoring the weather closely and will decide at the appropriate time if moving locations is required. We are making every effort to host graduation as normally scheduled. If that is not possible, please remember the ceremony will be live-streamed.
