Graduation and Commencement Ceremonies
NTHEN's GRADUATION and COMMENCEMENT CEREMONIES
NTHEN has hosted graduation exercises and commencement ceremonies for Homeschool students since 1992 and has assisted numerous Homeschool support groups over the years in developing their own graduation events.
Nevertheless, our Graduation program continues to be very popular with graduating seniors (and their parents) because the ceremony itself is professionally executed, and because the program offers high school seniors opportunities to come together for fellowship throughout the year prior to their graduation. Also, to participate in activities such as barbecues, swimming parties, sporting activities, nights at the movies, formal events, and other special get-togethers.
Thus, our seniors graduate as a true graduating class, not just as a group of strangers!
Parents appreciate the fact that one low fee covers everything - cap and gown, facilities, speakers, music, reception, and all the regalia inherent with such an important event in the lives of seniors and their families and friends.
NTHEN typically sponsors at least one graduation ceremony each year in May accommodating 700-1200 graduate family members and their guests.
Graduation always includes a commencement speaker who is selected for their ability to "charge" the graduates through their message of encouragement and inspiration to the graduate (and to their family members and guests, as well).
Special music and singing are also an integral part of our program as is the uniqueness of each student graduating individually, not in mass. Our 2012 Graduation and Commencement Exercises were held on May 26, 2012. Commencement speaker was Christian author, Mr. Ron Bracken, whose charge to the graduates of 2012 was one not only of encouragment, but one of challenge to be in service to mankind.
If you would like to attend one of our annual Graduation events as our guest, please contact us by email at graduation@nthen.org or by telephone at (972) 772-0082 for more information. Space is always limited, so please inquire early.
