For those students who have their sights set on graduation day, the calendar has been set for Canyons District’s 2025 commencement rites.
Per tradition, there will be plenty of pomp and circumstance as the hard work of thousands of students, parents, faculty and staff is marked by the distribution of diplomas and certificates of completion.
Each school has chosen a theme for their graduation ceremonies, from the nod to Mark Twain’s wisdom, “The secret to getting ahead is getting started,” to the classic Ralph Waldo Emmerson adage, “What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies within you.”
Canyons District’s five traditional high schools will hold their graduation ceremonies Thursday, May 29, 2025. Ceremonies for special programs and schools will be held on separate dates (see below).
