- All cameras are allowed, but no tripods or large camera bags.
- Seating is general admission, with six (6) tickets provided to each graduating student and distributed by their school
- Absolutely no replacement of lost tickets
- Graduation times have been scheduled to allow the Pensacola Bay Center to be sanitized after each ceremony
- No congregating after graduation ceremonies; graduates and families should go directly to their vehicles and exit the property promptly
- Graduates will be allowed to keep their cap and gown, and return these items to schools at a later date. This allows families to celebrate and take pictures with their graduates
- Graduates and guests will maintain social distancing while in the Pensacola Bay Center
- Anyone who has recently traveled outside of the country, had a fever within the last 14 days, or in contact with someone who was COVID-19 positive will be asked not to attend.
- All graduations will be live streamed for the general public for family members and friends who cannot attend, or to watch at a later time.

If you have a bridge…you already bought it…says a lot about people buying bridges…happy fathers day Wilbert
If anyone thinks that set up is safe from COVAD I’ve got a bridge I’d like to sell you.
Six feet means nothing.
@ just sayin….that will be at their discretion and their business
No law against it…like I said their business .ONLY their business
Oprah is on in 30 min, grab some Cheetos and sit back on the sofa
I am glad the seniors are getting to have a ceremony but keeping the chairs separated and then all ganging up for hugs and pictures will defeat the purpose.
