Griffin High School Graduation Update -
There is currently a lightning delay at Memorial Stadium. All students and graduation guests should remain in their cars until the lightning delay has passed. We must wait 30 from any lightning strike within a 10 mile radius of the stadium before entering the stadium. We will send an update once the lightning delay is over. Every attempt will be made to have graduation tonight as soon as the weather permits.

The start time for tonight's graduation ceremony has been moved up to 6 p.m. in an effort to avoid inclement weather. Gates will still open at 5 p.m. All other details for graduation will remain unchanged. Visit (https://www.gscs.org/page/graduation-class-of-2026) the destination graduation page for the top 10 things you need to know for graduation, parking map and the live stream link. Raincoats and ponchos are encouraged but umbrellas are not permitted in the stadium. All students will be provided a poncho. We have been in constant contact with our meteorology team and they have advised that the chance of inclement weather increases later in the evening. If lightning is detected near our area, the stadium will be evacuated and the ceremony will be delayed until weather permits. Any additional updates will be provided on the GSCS and GHS website, social media, GSCS app, email, phone call and text.

Thank you.

Hello Griffin High School Families,

We are working closely with our meteorology partners to monitor the weather forecast for graduation this Friday at 7:00 PM. At this time, our partners say there is a 30% chance of scattered showers after 3 p.m. Friday.

Graduation will be held outside on the field at Memorial Stadium. Lightning or inclement weather that is unsafe could delay the graduation ceremony until the weather improves. If the forecast warrants, please bring ponchos and raincoats (but no umbrellas).

Please continue to monitor the GSCS website (www.gscs.org), your email, text messages and/or the GSCS app for district communication, and school and district social media for any official updates.

We look forward to celebrating the Class of 2026 with you this Friday.
