Strathmore's capacity is only 1,976. |
Why does it have to be indoors? Colleges have graduations outdoors all the time. |
And so have HS. Some are this year again having it outside at their own HS. Need Indoor because apparently district can't purchase enough tents for inclement weather. |
What about a rain date? My HS graduation was outside and it rained and we all survived. |
And you walked 5 miles to school each way every day too, right? |

No. Took a bus. Graduation is one day |
Not having graduation at your high school is really weird. If you want to build massive schools, have capacity at the football field for these type of events. |
It was working out fine for most HS who pivoted to football fields for the last two years. |
Football fields most expensive it seems. Not sure how though? |
HS is most logical. Livestream in this day and age for grandparents and other relatives. |
But if you have more than 2 kids, the other kids can't attend if at the HS. Three tickets ok if just mom,dad,1child. |
Do you know how many siblings would be overjoyed not to have to go. I mean seriously. It’s graduation. They say your name for 2 seconds. |

+1 I'm pretty sure there was only one MCPS HS that had Strathmore as their graduation location back then. |
