The year was 2000 when most of these children were born. Starting in late May these young adults will be graduating from high school.

Balloons, flowers, fat heads and banners will be carried into stadiums and arenas by proud family members to honor them.

You may see them out proudly displaying their school in caps and gowns, see or hear fireworks going off in their honor or pass by a school with the stadium lights on, indicating the commencement.

Keep in mind they are our future and this will be their day to reflect and celebrate.聽

What's that song played at every graduation?

Pomp and Circumstance is played as the graduate students walk in. The title comes from a line in Shakespeare鈥檚 Othello, 鈥淧ride, pomp and circumstance of glorious war!鈥� In 1902, the lyrics were written by poet and essayist Arthur Christopher Benson. It鈥檚 official when you hear this song played.

Why the tossing of the caps?

Before you toss the cap remember that it should be parallel to the floor and the front point of the cap should be centered on the forehead.

The tradition of tossing the cap was started by the Naval Academy in 1912. It soon caught on and now is the final token done to end the festivities.

Why move the tassel?

The moving of the tassel from one side to the other is considered the individual鈥檚 movement from candidate to graduate. Prior and during the ceremony the tassel is worn on the right. After the receiving the diploma the tassel is moved to the left.
