Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
After closely monitoring the forecast and carefully weighing every option, Warsaw Community Schools (WCS) has made the decision to move the Class of 2025 commencement ceremony indoors to the Tiger Den.
This was not an easy call, according to a news release from WCS. The WCS team understands how special an outdoor celebration can be, and they know many families and graduates were looking forward to that experience, the release states. However, WCS’ top priority is the safety and comfort of their students, their families and staff. They believe this decision is in everyone’s best interest.
The ceremony will still take place Friday, May 30, 2025, at 7 p.m., but the location has been moved from Fisher Field to the Tiger Den Gymnasium inside Warsaw Community High School.
Gates will open at 6 p.m. Each graduate will still be able to use their full allotment of eight tickets, and all attendees — including children — will need a ticket to enter.
Guests may enter the building through two designated entrances: the front main entrance to Warsaw Community High School or the north and south gym entrances near the athletic office on the back side of the building. Guests are encouraged to arrive early to allow time for seating and to carpool if possible, as parking near the building will be limited.
For those unable to attend in person, the ceremony will be live streamed on the Warsaw Community Schools YouTube channel at: www.youtube.com/@WarsawCommunitySchools/streams
