It’s graduation time for seniors

Friday, June 7, 2002 | 9:12 a.m.

The waiting is over for Clark County School District seniors -- the graduation caps and gowns are ready, and so are the students.

The commencement season begins with Boulder City High School's graduation tonight and concludes June 15.

The district expects to hand diplomas to about 10,000 students. Students who have earned enough credits to graduate but have not yet passed the Nevada State High School Proficiency Exam will receive certificates of attendance instead.

Tickets are required for admission and are distributed by the schools.
