TASIS Dorado challenges and nurtures students to pursue academic and personal excellence so that they become engaged global citizens and innovative, selfless leaders.
We appreciate your presence in celebrating our 8th graders promotion to the Upper School. To fully appreciate the ceremony, kindly silence all electronic devices and avoid leaving the theater until the ceremony concludes and our students leave the premises.
We also ask that audience members remain seated during the ceremony to avoid any disruptions or interruptions to the program or special moments for others.
Please rise to welcome the Class of 2027 and remain standing through the performance of the National Anthems.
Our ceremony is being livestreamed on our YouTube channel.
A digital photography team will take each graduate’s photos to commemorate this momentous occasion. Within five days after the ceremony, you can easily access and download for free the digital photos from our SmugMug Digital Photo Gallery.
Studio photographer Cecil Pedrosa will take official print photos of every graduate, which will be available for purchase. If you are interested, please email Cecil Pedrosa at cecilphoto@yahoo.com
To keep the ceremony running smoothly and respectfully, we kindly request that family members refrain from approaching the stage to take photos.
We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to your enjoyment of the ceremony. It is a time to celebrate the accomplishments of our students.
