District to Hold In-Person Graduation Ceremonies

The Nampa School District will hold in-person graduation ceremonies at the Ford Idaho Center for Columbia High School, Nampa High School and Skyview High School. The Idaho Center is no longer limiting attendance, so graduates can invite as many people to participate as they would like. To allow for a traditional ceremony while also recognizing the health and safety of those in attendance, the district strongly encourages guests to wear masks while inside the building. The event will be live streamed so that those who cannot attend or who are not feeling well can enjoy the ceremony from home.

Union High School will hold a ceremony at the NNU Brandt Center, and Treasure Valley Leadership Academy (TVLA) will celebrate outdoors at Lakeview Park. NOVA, the district’s online school, will hold a virtual ceremony, followed by a hat-toss celebration outdoors at Park Ridge Field. This will be a first-ever graduation for both TVLA, which launched in fall 2017 with freshmen only, and NOVA, which started in fall 2020 for K-12.
