Peters Township High School Commencement: What You Need To Know

PETERS TOWNSHIP, PA - Peters Township High School’s 341 seniors will graduate June 16.
Commencement will begin at 7 p.m. in the high school stadium, or in the event of inclement weather, in the high school gym.

Here’s everything you need to know about the big evening:

• Parking

Plan to arrive early, as traffic is always heavy on commencement day. Parking will be available at the high school and at Pleasant Valley Elementary School. Staff members in golf carts will transport those who need assistance to the stadium. Parking shuttles will be available from Peters Township Middle School beginning at 5:30 p.m.

• Stadium or gym?

If it’s necessary to move the ceremony indoors, parents will be notified via the district’s calling system on Friday afternoon. If commencement is held indoors, all guests must enter via the main entrance and proceed to the gym or the auditorium, where a live simulcast can be viewed.
Only ticketed guests will be admitted to the gym, which will open at 6:30.

• Viewing the ceremony

The auditorium simulcast of the ceremony will occur regardless of whether commencement is held indoors or outdoors. The district also will stream the ceremony online for those unable to attend in person. The link will not go live until Friday.

• Photographing the ceremony

Parents will not be permitted on the field to take photos during the ceremony. Tri-Color Photography will be shooting the event and photo proofs will be available online for purchase following commencement.
