• Dear AMCS Graduates and Families of Graduates,

     

    What an exciting season this is for you! We want you to know we share your enthusiasm as the long-awaited graduation day approaches. With that in mind, we have a few pointers and requests which will make the event memorable:

     

    • Though the day will be hectic, snap a couple of photos before you head out the door to the ceremony.
    • The Alaska Airlines Center parking lot will open at noon for 2 p.m. ceremonies. Plan to arrive at the venue early as traffic and parking cause delays.
    • Please note the following ways in which to be respectful of other graduates’ families and the venue manager:
      • Make your way to your vehicle immediately following the ceremony and proceed to exit the parking lot, allowing timely access for the next event.
      • Refrain from tailgating and using the parking lot as a celebration venue - instead, make plans to gather family and friends at home after the ceremony.
      • No tents or barbeques will be permitted at the venue. Your own backyard is a much more appealing place for a party tent than an asphalt parking lot, and your photos there will make better keepsakes.
      • Refrain from any sort of littering, including confetti, streamers, loose candy, etc., as such objects impact birds and the environment.
    • Remember to take pictures along the way – graduates and families all have reason to commemorate seniors’ many accomplishments.
    • Have a safe journey home to celebrate.
    • Doors will open 1 hour prior to the ceremony.
    • No air horns or artificial noisemakers.
