Graduation venue change announced

Jun. 7, 2020

The 2020 Garland ISD graduation venue has been changed – again. Because Globe Life Park is open-air and the weather forecast calls for high temperatures, the Texas Rangers organization has moved the ceremonies to the climate-controlled Globe Life Field for safety reasons.

 

The Rangers sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that the change might cause for the Garland ISD administration, staff, students and families.

 

Please note that graduation details are subject to change based on guidelines from local, state and federal authorities. We understand this ever-changing situation is challenging. Our focus is on celebrating our graduates with a meaningful event that honors their accomplishments in the safest way possible.
