Graduation RSVP - Deadline to complete July 5th

We ask students to limit attendance to 5 guests.  Between EMTS staff, guest speakers, students and guests the total for the evening can be more than 150-200 people.  We respectfully request that young children not attend the event.  If you have limited options for child care please contact the school to see what can be worked out.  If your children are old enough to understand the meaning and the importance of the evening then of course they are welcome to attend.  It is important that all students attend.  If you are on shift and cannot afford to take time off the school will pay you to attend. It is that important.  If you miss your paramedic graduation you will regret it.  If your employer is not allowing you time off please contact the school for assistance.

Student dress for evening: Option 1) suit and tie, option 2) department dress uniform. Ladies are on their own.

Dress attire for guests: Suit (with or without tie) preferred. Sports jacket (with or without tie) and slacks. Ladies once again on their own.
