FAQS What does the graduation fee cover? Event space coordination, personalized reception and diploma, and printing costs. What do graduates usually wear? Most graduates wear “church” clothes with a cap, gown, and tassel. We encourage all graduates to have at least a cap/tassel. What do parents normally say at presentation of diploma? We have parents come up with their graduate to present the diploma. Most parents share about the things that make them proud of their graduate, but often it is a simple handoff and hug. Please plan to keep your presentation to 3-5 minutes.
