Inclement Weather Update NHS Graduation

Dear Charger Families,

Due to severe weather predicted in our area for most of the day on Thursday and into the evening, we are moving our graduation ceremony indoors. Out of an abundance of caution and to prepare our graduates and their families prior to the event, we are making this decision in advance, regardless of the weather at the time of graduation. The ceremony will still begin at 7:00 p.m., with doors to the school opening at 6:00 p.m. This is a change from the time that was previously shared. Please take note of the following:

  • Graduates will have eight tickets for admission into our gym. No one will be permitted inside the school without a ticket in hand at our doors.

  • All guests will enter via the front lobby of Northwood High School.

  • We expect a full capacity crowd. No backrests or seat cushions will be permitted in the gym.

  • We plan to reserve the bottom rows for individuals in wheelchairs and with physical limitations.

  • Handicap parking remains behind the school. You may drop individuals off in front of the gym prior to parking.

The graduation will be livestreamed. You can find the link to the livestream on the district’s website, social media platforms, and on YouTube @ChathamCountySchools https://youtube.com/live/pP8HVF4ZmQI?feature=share.

Students, please plan to be here by 6:00 p.m. and meet in the auditorium.

We look forward to celebrating the graduating Class of 2025 tomorrow evening!
