Dear Parents/Guardians,
I hope all our MHS mothers and grandmothers had a wonderful Mother’s Day this past
Sunday. We only have two more weeks of this school year left! This Tiger Beat has
important information regarding graduation and events leading up to graduation. We
have a lot going on in May and this is an exciting time! I want all the parents of seniors
to know how much I am going to miss their amazing children. Their spirit will stay in
these halls for years to come. Please encourage your child to stay on task and finish
strong as finals are approaching. Have a wonderful week!
PARENTS OF SENIORS
Each year we put together a slide show displaying pictures of your graduates for the
front office monitor, cafeteria monitor, and to view at the Honors Conclave. Please
email me a picture of your child holding their college acceptance letter wearing their
future college t-shirt. This is really fun and the underclassman look up to our seniors. I
appreciate you helping me with this project. I look forward to the pictures. My email
address is a.s.murphy@maranausd.org.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 616-6431 or email A.S.Murphy@maranausd.org. We are here to serve you.
EARLY RELEASE DAYS: 12:40PM on May 19th, 20th & 21st

Graduation Information
BACCALAUREATE CEREMONY - The Baccalaureate Ceremony for seniors will be held this
year on May 17, 2015 at 6:00pm in the MHS Auditorium. Please join us as our seniors reflect
on their past 4 years at Marana and share some of their musical talents, along with a guest
speaker, and a slide show of our seniors. After the ceremony there will be cake. Seniors
should wear their cap, gowns, stoles, and their pins. Parents please send us a baby picture
and a senior picture of your senior to put in the slideshow. You can email them to
mhsbacc@gmail.com or students can bring them to Miss Dickey in C-17 where they can be
scanned. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Miss Dickey. We look
forward to celebrating the seniors past 4 years here at Marana High School!
REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPATION IN GRADUATION CEREMONY - Participating
seniors MUST attend all practices, be prompt for all scheduled times and follow the
guidelines outlined in this letter. Every attempt will be made to issue caps and gowns only to
those who appear to meet the graduation requirements. Issuance of a cap and gown does not
guarantee that all requirements have been met and the student is cleared to graduate. All
students must be cleared through the registrar, Mrs. Moore, before they can participate in the
graduation ceremony and/or receive their diploma. Students who have not completed
requirements will NOT be allowed to participate in any rehearsals or ceremonies of
graduation. If you choose not to participate, you MUST inform the principal’s secretary, Mrs.
Rowe, ASAP and pick up your diploma from Mrs. Rowe on or after Tuesday, May 26th during
the hours of 10:00 am and 1:00 pm.
PROPER GRADUATE ATTIRE AND BEHAVIOR FOR THE COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY
All seniors are expected to wear the cap and gown issued to them for the ceremony. We
believe strongly that our commencement ceremony is a formal recognition that should
reflect a measure of decorum appropriate to the occasion. As a result, students will not be
permitted to wear a gown or cap other than the one issued to them. Students are not
permitted to decorate their caps or gowns. In addition, the only sashes/cords at the
commencement ceremony will be the silver cords, gold cords, white NHS sashes, Academy
hoods, and student council officer sashes. In addition, some clubs/athletics have given out
pins for seniors to wear on their hoods. These pins are permitted to be worn in the front of
the hood. Girls may not wear heels. They need to wear flats or wedges due to the turf.

Graduation Information
PARKING FOR SENIORS
The options for parking are as follows:
Graduates can be dropped off. Graduates can come with their families and park in the west lot. Graduates attending Grad Night at MHS will receive a special parking pass and they will be able to park in the bus lot behind our Agricultural Science building. This parking will be first come, first serve. I encourage you to car pool. Golden tickets will be handed out to Grad Night participants at graduation rehearsal.
PARKING FOR GUESTS AND HANDICAP INFORMATION
Parking will be very limited. Please consider car- pooling to decrease the number of vehicles in need of spaces.
The entrance to the stadium will be from the west parking lot only. Handicapped parking will be in the west parking lot in the first (North) row in front of the gym. Availability will be on a first come, first served basis. Handicapped parking will be for the vehicles with handicapped plates or tags ONLY.
Handicapped seating will be in front of the stands on the track. Due to limited seating, the disabled person and one family member may sit in the handicapped section. Arrangements must be made in advance in order to have handicapped seating. Please email Mrs. Rowe at k.l.rowe@maranausd.org or call her at 616-6431 by Friday, May 15th.
GUEST EXPECTATIONS FOR OUR GRADUATION CEREMONY
Please help us in communicating to your family, friends and graduating seniors the
dignity of this ceremony. Beach balls, air horns, silly string, screaming, etc. serve only to
disrupt the ceremony and detract from the accomplishments of the seniors who are
walking across the stage. Everyone who has met graduation requirements and is
receiving a diploma deserves their “moment in the spotlight,” free of rude and
inappropriate behavior from others.
In addition, guests will be invited onto the field after the ceremony to congratulate their
graduates. Due to our new, beautiful turf field the items below are prohibited on the
field.
Any size heels (please wear wedges or flats)
Chewing gum/Beverages/Food of any kind/Sunflower seeds Motorized vehicles Tobacco products/e-cigarettes Any celebratory items such as confetti, poppers, silly string etc.

MARANA ATHLETICS
Tiger Pride News
This was a great spring athletic season with Baseball, Softball, Tennis, Track and
Men’s Volleyball for the 2015 year. All programs are entrenched in the 3C’s (Culture,
Commitment, and Competitiveness) at practice, on the field, court, and on campus.
We have several athletes going on to play in college and we are very proud of their
accomplishments. To the Tigers who will be returning, we look forward to the
upcoming year for you to show us your TIGER PRIDE character and continue the
work of our graduating Tigers. We are proud to say we are Marana High School and
appreciate all the hard work that was done this year. Have a Tiger Pride summer!
Proud to be the AD and TIGER PRIDE!
Ms. Montiel Turner
