Applications for graduation speakers at Provo High School are due by Friday, March 27. The school noted that late submissions cannot be accepted because of the timeline required for review and selection.
Being selected as a graduation speaker is described as a meaningful honor that allows a student to represent their senior class, reflect on shared experiences, and deliver a message to peers, families, and staff.
The application process is open to all graduating seniors. The school encourages students from various backgrounds, pathways, and post-graduation plans to apply.
According to the announcement, speeches must be original and appropriate for a formal school ceremony. A selection committee will review all applications.
Finalists will be notified following Spring Break and may be required to present their speech in person as part of the final selection process.
Interested students are encouraged to begin drafting their applications early to ensure they submit thoughtful and polished work.
For questions regarding the application process, individuals may contact Pamela Gardner in the College & Career Center.
