It?s graduation night

Megan Hobbs is set to walk the stage and receive her high school diploma tonight. So what?s the best part of graduating and leaving Warren County High School?

?I?ll get to use my phone whenever I want to,? said Hobbs referring to the school system?s policy prohibiting cellphone use during regular school hours.

WCHS graduation is scheduled for 7 p.m. tonight at Nunley Stadium. No rain is in the forecast with temperatures predicted to be in the mid to upper 50s at the time of the ceremony.

When asked about his high school career, senior Patrick Davis was on both ends of the spectrum.

?I?m so ready for it to be over,? said Davis, who also admitted it?s hard to say goodbye to this chapter in his life. ?It?s sad too. I don?t know when I?ll see some of these people again.?

When asked about a memorable high school moment, senior Jared Vanatta mentioned his junior year. That was when the Pioneer football team broke a 39-game losing streak and the goalposts came down.

?I jumped up and grabbed it and just hung on,? said Vanatta of his role in the goalpost melee.

About 390 seniors are scheduled to receive their diplomas tonight. Students are to arrive at McMinnville Civic Center at 5:30 p.m. and be bused to Nunley Stadium at 5:45 p.m. Students will begin lining up on the track at 6 p.m.

In the event of rain, the ceremony will be held at Nunley Stadium on Saturday at 5 p.m.
