The staff of Reynolds High School works diligently to provide a quality graduation ceremony that celebrates these accomplishments. Consequently, we require graduating seniors to wear traditional robes and caps without any adornments, only items issued by the school may be worn during the ceremony. Please respect the importance of this event by not bringing in noisemakers or other items that detract from the significance of the evening. We share in the pride of your student’s achievements and look forward to celebrating them with you on graduation night.
