Ceremonies will also be live-streamed to allow loved ones not in attendance to still enjoy the academic milestone.<\/p>\n<p>To meet health and safety guidelines, graduations will be divided by alphabetically by students&rsquo; last names in 40 minute periods.<\/p>\n<p>For example, students&rsquo; with last names beginning with A-B for Federal Way High School will part take in their graduation ceremony from 1:30-2:10 p.m. Thursday, June 10.<\/p>\n<p>While nearby schools may allow more guests and larger audiences for their in-person ceremonies, such as Mount Tahoma allowing six guests per graduate, Federal Way Memorial Stadium has a smaller capacity than other stadiums in the region where outdoor graduations are being held for the class of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, fresh paint and new fencing has been installed at the Federal Way stadium in preparation for upcoming graduations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Graduation schedules:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Federal Way High School: Thursday, June 10, 2021: Pre-recorded video will air at 12 p.m. In-person graduation scheduled between 1:30 &#8211; 6:50 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Thomas Jefferson High School: Friday, June 11, 2021: Pre-recorded video will air at 12 p.m. In-person graduation scheduled between 1:30-6:50 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Todd Beamer High School: Saturday, June 12, 2021: Pre-recorded video will air at 7 a.m. In-person graduation scheduled between 8:30 a.m. &#8211; 1:10 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Decatur High School: Saturday, June 12, 2021: Pre-recorded video will air at 12:20 p.m. In-person graduation scheduled between 1:50 &#8211; 5:50 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>TAF@Saghalie &#8226; Sunday, June 13, 2021: Pre-recorded video will air at 8 a.m. In-person graduation scheduled between 9:30 a.m. &#8211; 10:30 a.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Truman Campus: Sunday, June 13, 2021: Pre-recorded video will air at 9:10 a.m. Federal Way Open Doors in-person graduation scheduled between: 10:40 &#8211; noon.
