Graduation Information:


We are pleased to inform you of New Paltz High School’s Class of 2024 graduation ceremony which will be an event that recognizes the accomplishments of our graduating seniors.


Graduation will be held on Wednesday, June 26, 2024 from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. at New Paltz High School’s Floyd Patterson Field. A reception will follow, sponsored by the PTSA.


Because parking is limited at the High School, graduates will receive two parking passes for two vehicles to park on site. The ceremony does not require individual tickets. Parking passes will be distributed at graduation rehearsal. If graduates drive their own vehicle it will be counted as one of their allowable vehicles. 


Additional parking will be available at Lenape. Shuttle service will run starting at 5:00 p.m. and will run every 15 minutes. Following the ceremony shuttle service will return to Lenape for one hour. 


In case of inclement weather, the graduation will take place on the same date and time at SUNY New Paltz in the Athletic and Wellness Center located at 1 Hawk Dr., New Paltz, NY 12561. If necessary, notification of the change of location of graduation will be made by 11:00 am. 


If the ceremony is held at SUNY New Paltz due to inclement weather, parking passes will not be needed. Individual tickets will not be needed either.
