The class of 2016’s graduation is coming. The graduation ceremony will be on Saturday, June 4th at 7:30 P.M. at Arrowhead’s famous football stadium. Although, if it rains, it will be held in the North Campus gym. Graduation is a big deal, so it’s also important to look the part.

Seniors Kelsey Manock, Nicole Hospel, and Brittany Hahn say they are wearing dresses. Manock’s is white. Hospel will be wearing a navy blue shift dress. While Hahn will wear a “very light blue, almost white” dress.

“I chose just a solid color because I really couldn’t find a fancier dress that had a pattern so I just thought a solid color would look nice,” says Manock.

Hospel says, “I just chose a solid color because it’s my favorite. It’s still dressy but casual.”

Hahn says, “It’s just a solid color. I really like it, I thought it was a nice classy color for graduation.”

“For graduation I’m definitely going to wear wedges,” says Manock.

Hospel also said she is going to wear “wedges.”

“Definitely wedges, they’re easier to walk in I think. Plus they look good,” says Hahn.

Now that we know what some seniors will be wearing outfit wise, how do they accessorize? Girls ask, how should I wear my hair? Do I wear a necklace? Or is that too much…will it look weird under the gown?

Manock says, “I’m not sure what to do with my hair yet… maybe I’ll curl it.”

“[I’m wearing my hair] curly because my hair is straight all the time,” says Hospel.

Hahn also says, “I think I might just keep my hair straight. Curling it is really hard because my hair is so thick.”

Arrowhead dress code requirements are that the ladies wear a dress, romper, or skirt. Also that you wear nice sandals or wedges. They don’t recommend heals. For the boys, they must be in dress pants (no khakis) with dress shoes. Also they must wear or tie, if not meet these requirements-students won’t be able to walk.

“I will probably just my two rings and a bracelet or two,” says Manock.

“Maybe a simple necklace and some rings. Probably won’t wear a bracelet unless it’s really cute,” says Hospel.

Hahn says, “probably just a nice bracelet or something.”

Graduation is also a time for family and friends to come together and celebrate. Many graduation parties either happen before, or well after the ceremony.

“Before graduation I’m inviting some friends over and my family will be over for a cookout,” says Manock.

“I’m sure we are having my family over for a little and eat take pictures,” says Hospel.

Hahn says, “I’m having like a lunch with my family and just spending time with them.”

For after the ceremony, which will end around 9:00 P.M. some families go out to dinner and other students will throw parties. If you’re not sure what to do after, here are some ideas that our seniors will be doing.

“After, again I’m inviting some friends and I think some family will be over for a bonfire,” says Manock.

Hospel says, “Afterwards I think we are going out to eat.”

“After I’m going to Sam’s grandparents for a bonfire,” says Hahn.

Last day of school is next week Friday, June 3rd. It’s sad that high school will be over with and now we’re moving on to college. “I’m excited but nervous… I can’t believe we are graduating next weekend. It came by so fast and now I’m just looking forward to going to college and starting fresh,” says Manock.

“It’s sort of nerve-wrecking that i’m almost done with high school but also excited.” says Hospel.

Hahn says, “I’m excited but I can’t believe it came so fast. This year flew by and I’m ready to be done.”
