U’s decision on high school graduation ceremonies not to affect EP Schools - Eden Prairie Local News

Eden Prairie Schools Unaffected by University of Minnesota's Decision

Eden Prairie Schools has confirmed that the University of Minnesota's decision to no longer host high school graduation ceremonies will not impact the district.

The University of Minnesota announced that it will no longer host high school graduations at its campus venues, effective immediately, due to the significant strain on its limited resources.

Hosting more than 20 outside events with thousands of attendees over a two-week period represents a significant strain on the university’s limited resources that is no longer sustainable.

The 3M Arena at Mariucci, which hosts the school's men's ice hockey team, previously hosted 24 high school graduations over a few weeks, but this will no longer be the case.

Author's summary: Eden Prairie Schools unaffected by U of M decision.
