Hello Class of 2022 Graduates, Family, Friends, & Fans,

It has been a long time coming for the Class of 2022 to reach this point in
their educational journey. We are excited to announce the roster of Class
of 2022 ceremonies and celebrations meant to pay tribute to this tremendous
achievement. After spring break, we will continue to follow up with more
specific details about clearing fees, wristband pick up, prohibited items list,
parking, ADA seating, transportation, etc...

*BHS GRADUATION*
All Class of 2022 graduating students will have their moment on stage at
this ceremony to be held at Jacket Stadium on Saturday, June 4.

Graduating students can expect to receive a certain number of wristbands for
their guests with an opportunity to claim more wristbands as we get closer
to May 1. The exact number of guests per graduating student will be explained
in further detail after spring break. All guests will need a ticket which
will be distributed in the weeks leading up to the ceremony. In addition,
all seniors must have all fines cleared in order to claim their tickets.
Students will receive notifications directly via email if they need to
clear fines or return any outstanding items. See Senior Letter for details
<https://bhs.berkeleyschools.net/student-activities-3/senior-information-2/>
.

There will be two ceremonies separated by the last name of the graduating
student in order to accommodate enough guests for the 3,000 seat Jacket
Stadium. In addition, we will host a live stream of the event on YouTube
for anyone who is not able to attend in person.
