After reviewing the National Weather Service forecast for our region, the Tyrrell County Schools District will move graduation indoors, to the Tyrrell County 4H Center for Saturday, June 5, 2021 at 9am. TCS administrators made the decision to avoid severe weather predictions of rain for our area.

Tyrrell County 4H Center
100 N Clover Way, Columbia, NC 27925

We know that graduation is a huge milestone for our seniors, and this location and date change offers Tyrrell County Schools the best opportunity to provide this ceremony, while family and friends are already in town.

The ceremony will be streamed live on the TCS Youtube channel for those who may choose to watch from the comfort of their homes.

The district will offer shuttle buses from both parking areas at the 4 H Center to help you arrive on time for the occasion.

Only individuals with a ticket will be granted access or admittance inside the facility. Guests will need to be seated before 8:45 am, as the program will start promptly at 9:00am.

In accordance with NC Executive Order 215; as the facility is property of the State of North Carolina, COVID-19 protocols are required.

**Face Coverings are Required Indoors**
