Sample Emcee Script for Moving Up or Graduation Ceremony

A emcee script in the graduation ceremony is quite helpful because all schools will be
conducting or celebrating graduation rites or moving up ceremonies every year. For
those teachers who are assigned to be EMCEEs or Masters of Ceremonies but don’t
yet have a guide, this emcee script will be useful for them.

An emcee script is sometimes difficult because there is a protocol to follow. Teachers

who are always assigned to be the emcee at every event should be trained to guide
them. Not only English majors but teachers from all subject areas must attend because
not all English majors will be assigned to be hosts, but I believe all teachers who have
the potential or ability to speak or communicate should also attend.
 A sample emcee script in the graduation ceremony;

Emcee: A radiant morning to all. Today we mark an exceptional day in our calendar as
we celebrate the tireless journey of our students. Welcome, one and all, to the 4th
Senior High School Graduation Rites of Maria Ana High School with the theme,
______________.

Emcee: As we commence this significant occasion, let’s honor the strength of our
nation with the Entrance of Colors.

followed by a heartfelt Invocation by Mrs. Mina N. Solena. Please rise.

Confirming them is our Schools Division Representative, Dr. Reymond M. Villaforte,

municipal mayor, Hon. Miquel T. Delos Santos. Graduates, when your name is called,
please make your way to the stage…

Honors and special awards to our graduates.

gratitude on behalf of the graduating class.

their Alma Mater, led by Ms. Richelle Anne V. Rimones, with High Honors, General
Academic Strand.

Pledge of Loyalty by the Graduates

Emcee: Celebrating their achievements and their dreams, our graduates will now
present a lively rendition of their chosen graduation song, “Fight”. Prepare to be
entertained!

President, Mr. Ronie T. Milao, to acknowledge those who contributed to making this
ceremony possible, followed by his closing remarks.

relentless spirit. Congratulations!

This emcee script at a graduation is helpful for the newly hired teachers in schools who
are appointed as hosts or emcees. Teachers will be guided in what they say, even if
each school celebrates the event in its own unique way.

The usefulness of the emcee script at the graduation is as a guide or a door to open up
the teachers’ ideas about what to do at the graduation. It helps them embark and add
more colors to make the event more memorable for the graduates. The best graduation
ceremonies are in the hands of the emcee and how she/he runs the program.

Tips on how to effectively deliver an emcee script for a graduation ceremony:

1. Preparation: Familiarize yourself with the script beforehand. Understanding the

flow of the event will help you anticipate what comes next.
2. Confidence: Confidence is key. It’s essential to maintain a poised and
composed demeanor. If you’re confident, your audience will feel more at ease.
3. Clear and Slow: It’s important to speak clearly and not too quickly. Take your
time to enunciate your words properly so that your audience can understand
what you’re saying.
4. Maintain Eye Contact: Engage your audience by making eye contact. This
helps to connect with your audience and makes your delivery more impactful.
5. Adaptability: Be prepared for the unexpected. Things might not always go as
planned, so being able to adapt quickly is a useful skill.
6. Energy and Enthusiasm: A good emcee injects energy and enthusiasm into the
event. Your energy can set the tone for the entire ceremony.
7. Interactive: Engage with your audience. This could be through humor, asking
rhetorical questions, or inviting audience participation at appropriate times.
8. Cue Mastery: Understand and master your cues. Know when to start and end
your parts, and when to introduce the next segment or speaker.
9. Respect: Always be respectful and considerate. Remember, you’re there to
enhance the event, not overshadow it.
10. Have Fun: Enjoy the process. If you’re having a good time, chances are your
audience will too.
