Order Tickets


Inclement Weather Plan:


Every attempt will be made to have an outdoor ceremony. If the weather forecast calls for a light rain with no thunder/lightning in the morning, we will hold graduation outdoors at 10:00 AM. In this event, please dress appropriately and bring umbrellas, in order to be comfortable during the outdoor ceremony.

If there are more severe weather conditions with thunder/lightning in the morning, we will postpone the ceremony until 1:00 PM, in an attempt to have the ceremony outdoors. However, if severe weather conditions persist and an outdoor ceremony is impossible, the graduation ceremony will be held indoors at 1:00 PM with a limit of two guests.

We will notify families by phone, listserve and the website if weather conditions cause us to implement any aspect of this inclement weather plan.


Video & Livestreaming:


Graduation 2023 will be live streamed on Hunterdon Central Television Live.


It will also be aired on Comcast Channel 27 beginning on the evening of June 22 and posted on Hunterdon Central's Youtube Channel.


Parking & Shuttle Service:

On-site parking for graduation is extremely limited. Graduates and their guests are encouraged to use off-site parking and shuttle bus service to and from Hunterdon Central.

Parking and shuttles are free of charge, and riders need only to show a graduation ticket or their cap/gown to ride. Off-site parking will be available at:

  • 3M Company (500 Route 202, Flemington). Use the Route 202 entrance and park in the lot to the left, as you enter the property. All guests who live on this end of town are encouraged to use the 3M location.
  • Hunterdon County Justice Complex Juror Parking Lot (entrance is off Capner Street in Flemington)

Please be aware that these businesses are open on graduation day, so be sure to park in designated areas:

Shuttles will begin to depart the off-site parking lots at 8:30 AM and will run continuously until 9:45 AM for the 10:00 AM graduation ceremony.

In the case of a delayed ceremony at 1:00 PM, shuttles will begin to depart from the off-site parking lots at 11:30 AM and run continuously until 12:45 PM.

Return shuttles will operate after the ceremony from the drop off point (Transportation Building/Bus Parking Lot) to the off-site parking lots. Shuttles will begin to leave once the bus is full, after the completion of the ceremony, and will continue to operate until all riders are returned to the off-site lots.

Shuttles cannot transport babies/infants, car seats or strollers.

Please note: Due to pedestrian traffic, the campus inner-roadway will be closed on Graduation Day. Graduates are not permitted to park on campus; they should be dropped off or take the shuttle. Please plan accordingly.
