Summary
Committee approved the 2026 graduation procedures and parent information packet, confirming mandatory rehearsal, ceremony timing and translated documents. The committee also discussed graduation-related events and dates.
The Rockland School Committee approved graduation procedures and the 2026 parent information packet at its March 9 meeting. Administrators reviewed the timeline of senior activities, mandatory rehearsal (9 a.m. on graduation day), cap-and-gown distribution, and contingency plans including a rain date (next day, 11 a.m.).
The parent packet includes the road-to-graduation schedule, expectations for seniors and details about prom and other senior activities. Administrators confirmed the documents have been translated for families. Committee members approved the packet by motion.
Separately the meeting reviewed the broader 2026–27 school calendar in a first reading and tabled it for further consideration; the proposed first day of school was Sept. 2 under the draft calendar, and committee members discussed snow-day assumptions and schedule spacing.
