ISD 196 Plans For Outdoor Graduations, No Guest Limit

APPLE VALLEY, MN— Independent School District 196 announced that it will have outdoor graduations June 5 or 6, depending on weather, the district said.

High school principals emailed graduates and their families saying they will make every effort to have the event outside with no limits on the number of guests allowed per graduate, the district said.

If weather doesn't permit an outside ceremony for either day, the ceremonies will be held indoors with an allotted number of guests per graduate, the district said.

Apple Valley High School and Rosemount High School will hold their ceremonies at Rosemount High School's stadium, the district said. Apple Valley High School's ceremony will be at 2 p.m. and Rosemount High School's ceremony will be at 7 p.m., the district said.

Eagan High School and Eastview High School will hold their ceremonies at Eagan High School's stadium, the district said. Eagan High School's ceremony will be at 2:21 p.m. and Eastview High School's ceremony will be at 7 p.m., the district said.

Apple Valley High School and Eastview High School both have artificial turf construction projects in their stadiums, which is why they must use stadiums from other schools, the district said.

Nearly 2,200 students are graduating from ISD 196 schools this year, the district said.
