Route
- Cars with graduates will enter the campus by turning RIGHT into the upper staff lot gate on Eureka. (NO LEFTS will be allowed into the gate).
- The line will extend from Eureka onto Ashbury toward Stockton (7-11).
- Cars will drive down the back fire lane and round the corner at auto shop. Then continue through the gates between the art building and gym and into the quad.
- Once graduates enter the staging area in front of the A building, they will wait in their cars until an ECHS staff member calls them toward the stage. GRADUATES SHOULD SIT ON THE PASSENGER (BACK OR FRONT) SIDE OF THE CAR.
- Graduates will give their name card to the announcer, get their diploma cover, cross the stage, and have their official graduation photo taken.
- After the grad walks the stage, the graduate will go down the stairs and return to their family waiting in their car to celebrate.
