Grad Night
Grad Night is a long-standing Capital High School tradition that is sponsored by graduate parents. It provides graduates with a safe, fun, all-night celebration immediately following graduation. Students are bused to different locations for a night full of activities, allowing them to celebrate together in a supervised environment. This tradition helps reduce the risk of accidents and other safety concerns during a high-risk night for teens. Graduates return to Capital High School around 3 a.m.
