The Onalaska High School graduation, through the cooperative effort of students, parents, and staff will continue to be a traditional and formal ceremony of which we can all be proud. 2. This is a “formal” occasion and we ask that students dress appropriately and have their gowns as wrinkle free as possible. Tennis shoes and casual sandals are not deemed appropriate. 3. There will be areas set aside for parents who wish to videotape or take pictures. 4. There will be a photographer on stage that will take pictures of all graduates as they receive their diplomas. The proofs will be sent to your home and you will have the option of purchasing them if you wish. 5. Parking will be at a premium so you may wish to arrive early. Doors will be open at 12:00 PM and tickets will NOT be needed. 6. Graduates will receive their diploma covers during the ceremony and should pick up their actual diplomas in the commons immediately following the ceremony. Students may not participate in the ceremony if they have outstanding fines. 7. There will be special seating for senior citizens and handicapped people on the main floor. Please contact Bridgett Hubbard for necessary arrangements. Senior Night There will be a Senior Night get together on Thursday, May 17 from 7:00 - 9:00 PM in the OHS Commons. An evening of fun has been planned for the class of 2018. If you leave, you cannot return. Yearbooks will be handed out from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m. Dear Parents: Senior Skip Day is not supported or condoned by Onalaska High School. We DO allow our seniors to finish classes three weeks earlier than everyone else. With this in mind, we ask for your continued support of the educational process while allowing your students to experience natural consequences for their choices. Thank you!

Due to latex allergies, OHS is not allowed to accept or have latex balloons in school. The exposure to the balloons could cause serious or potentially life-threatening allergic reactions. Please refrain from bringing balloons to the graduation for this reason. Anyone bringing balloons will be asked to return them to their car. You are more than welcome to give them to the graduate after the program, outside. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
