High school graduations will remain at the Bob Carpenter Center

ELKTON — Cecil County Public Schools will once again hold its graduation ceremonies at the Bob Carpenter Center in Newark, Del. Two members of the Cecil County School Board voted against it Wednesday evening, but were outvoted with a 3-2 nod in favor of spending $58,590 to rent the Bob Carpenter Center for the 2027 graduations. Joe Ferdinando and Brian Hampton — this was Hampton’s final meeting — voted against the expense, with Hampton noting that coming budget cuts from the state means CCPS might need those funds elsewhere, including a shortage of teacher assistants in kindergarten classes. (Sheila Tome defeated Hampton for the District 4 seat. Hawley decided not to seek re-election. Grant Handley won her seat. Joe Ferdinando and challenger Dominick Mannella are separated by less than 2 percentage points. That race will be determined by a final tally with all ballots counted sometime Friday according to Gary Holmes, chief of the Cecil County Board of Elections) Superintendent Jeffrey Lawson said the individual schools budget about $7,000 on average for the ceremony regardless, so having it off site only adds about $20,000 to the CCPS budget. “Already on the budget doesn’t mean it should be spent,” Ferdinando said.
