If you have a student who needs to leave early, please see a Guest Relations Cast Member in Chaperone Headquarters (location TBD) and fill out an Early Release form for your student. You will then take this form to a Main Entrance Cast Member, who will allow you to exit Disney California Adventure. We ask that you then walk the student out to meet a waiting Parent/Guardian before returning to the park. 2013 Parent/Student Acknowledgment Form: We no longer require a Parent Student Acknowledgment form, though we encourage schools/groups to conduct their own to encourage all Grads to be on their best behavior. ADVERTISING GRAD NITE Here are a few suggestions on how to get the word out about Grad Nite at your school: 1. Include a Grad Nite message in the morning announcements or daily bulletin.

2. Advertise where tickets can be purchased in the school newspaper. We have included a press release on the event in this email that you can use to publicize Grad Nite 2013! 3. Put a link to the Grad Nite Facebook (facebook.com/disneylandgradnite) on your school s website. 4. Include a Grad Nite message on your school marquee. 5. Run a Grad Nite promotion on your closed-circuit TV. SECURITY UPDATE Disneyland Grad Nite is a drug, alcohol, and weapon-free event. We are continuing to explore the necessary processes to maintain a safe and secure celebration, both during the day time portion when students can park hop, as well as for the private lock in party in the evening. Our world class security team will be staffed up for all Grad Nite days and Anaheim Law Enforcement will be present during the event and will take appropriate actions if drugs, alcohol, drug paraphernalia or weapons are found. Please make sure all Students and Chaperones are aware of these guidelines before boarding transportation to the event. Alcohol, illegal drugs, and weapons are not permitted at the Disneyland Resort at any time. Suggested Guideline for Schools: Students who have been recommended for expulsion or who have had serious disciplinary action will not be considered students in good standing and therefore should not be permitted to participate in Disneyland Grad Nite. It is the responsibility of the school to determine that all Students participating in Grad Nite are in good standing prior to arrival. We intend for 2013 to maintain an excellence in safety and security. Please help us help you by conducting your own thorough Security screening prior to departure and arrival at the Disneyland Resort for faster and smoother processing once at the Main Entrance and a safer event for everyone.
