The processional will be led by a school bus, starting promptly at 12:50 p.m., heading southbound and through town at approximately 1 p.m. Students will slowly pass the Voice of Vashon stage, in the center of town, to have their names read. Other friends and family may stand along the parade route to support seniors. This event will be both recorded and live-streamed on VOV FM 101.9 radio and TV.

The parade will end at Vashon Island Coffee Roasterie, where participants will depart to their own destinations.

Vashon High School’s commencement ceremony will take place from 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday, June 11. Graduation will be held outdoors, in the football stadium, rain or shine, and there are no guest limits/tickets this year. In the unlikely event the ceremony gets moved indoors, each graduate will be limited to six guests. Families with mobility needs should email jmerrill@vashonsd.org for accommodations.

The stadium will open at 5:30 p.m., seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
