EDHS Class of 2027: Graduation Information and changes

Hi Golden Hawks,

Congratulations to our senior class for their upcoming graduation in seven months. Below is detailed information for you from PYLUSD and EDHS regarding the 2027 ceremony for our seniors in May.

El Dorado 2027 Graduation at Bradford Stadium

May 26, 2027 at 4:00 pm

Gates open at 1:30 pm

We are sharing this date early so you have time to plan, coordinate with loved ones traveling from near and far, and look forward to celebrating your graduation together.

Similar to last year, the graduation ceremony will be ticketed, and stadium policies will be in effect. Each graduate will receive a limited number of tickets. Additional details regarding ticket allotments and distribution will be shared in the spring.

Additionally, an indoor viewing option will also be available in the Valencia HS Auditorium, where the ceremony will be livestreamed in real time on a large screen. With comfortable seating and air conditioning, this space may be especially appealing to older family members, families with young children, or guests who prefer an indoor setting. Its proximity to the stadium makes it easy to reunite with your graduate after the ceremony for photos, congratulations, and continued celebrations.

Still need your cap, gown, and tassel?

Socal Grad is here to help you with your graduation needs. Do you have grad night questions? Get your grad night answers HERE.

Demerit Update

Please see the attached notification for important information regarding demerits. Including how to find them in Aeries, and how to remove them. Please use the links below or in the attached Communications letter to find answers to questions you have about demerits.

Hello, Families and Students,

Effective November 2nd, students can view their demerit totals through the Aeries website. This information is available in the “Student Demographics” section of the student portal. Student’s demerit totals will be updated nightly in the “Message” field on the “Student Demographics” screen.

The attached screen image shows where staff, students, and parents can find this field on the demographics screen student data 1 screen. If you don't see a number or if it shows '0', you currently have no demerits.

We wanted to communicate this update as soon as possible. Our administrative team originally shared that demerits would be posted monthly for students to review. However, we needed to transition away from that process. Fortunately, our IT department was able to help us find a solution, allowing students to view their current demerit totals at any time through Aeries.

Additionally, effective January 4, students on the hold/loss of privileges list will have their lunch passes and parking permits revoked until all outstanding demerits have been cleared. This was communicated previously to all students through our Keep It Classy presentations in August. This gives students who have 6+ demerits plenty of time and opportunities to work them off.

Please refer to the attached detention and Saturday School schedule for information regarding available dates, times, and locations for students to remove demerits.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we continue to improve our processes and provide students with greater access to this information. We encourage families to review demerit totals with their students and discuss the importance of meeting school expectations and resolving outstanding demerits.

Thank you, EDHS Administration

Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) Info Meeting Nov. 9th

Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL)

Dear EDHS Families,

As high school athletics continue to evolve, Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities are becoming an increasingly important topic for student-athletes and their families.

EDHS Athletics is excited to introduce NIL 101: Name, Image & Likeness, an educational presentation designed to help our student-athletes and families better understand NIL opportunities, the responsibilities that come with them, and the rules that govern participation at the high school level.

During this presentation, we will discuss:

Understanding NIL: What Name, Image & Likeness means and how it applies to high school athletes.
CIF Southern Section Bylaws: Understanding what is permitted, what is prohibited, and how NIL activities may impact athletic eligibility.
Sponsorships & Endorsements: Examples of potential NIL opportunities and what student-athletes should know before accepting an offer.
Social Media & Personal Branding: How athletes can build and represent their personal brands responsibly.
Contracts & Agreements: Important considerations before signing any agreement or accepting compensation.
Protecting Your Eligibility: Recognizing potential red flags and knowing when to ask questions before moving forward.

Our goal is to provide student-athletes and families with the knowledge and resources needed to make informed decisions as they navigate this evolving landscape of high school sports.

We strongly encourage parents and guardians to be involved in these conversations. NIL opportunities can involve financial agreements, contractual obligations, and eligibility considerations. Having a parent or trusted adult involved before accepting an opportunity or signing an agreement is essential.

Whether your student-athlete is actively exploring NIL opportunities or simply wants to understand what the future may hold, this presentation will provide valuable information.

We look forward to helping our Golden Hawks better understand the opportunities, responsibilities, and expectations that come with NIL.

Thank you for your continued support of EDHS Athletics, and we hope to see you Monday, November 9, @ 6 PM in the library! No reservations needed.

Questions? Please email our Athletic Director, Ray Elliott, relliott@pylusd.org
