Reports describe disruptions during a graduation ceremony at Wichita High School East on May 20. Multiple accounts say students were made to engage in a handshaking moment as they crossed the stage to receive diplomas, and that the interaction created discomfort and chaos. One report describes a school administrator physically handling students as they proceeded across the stage. The same coverage frames the situation as tied to a teacher or administrator’s attempt to involve students in a celebratory routine that allegedly included directing them into awkward handshakes. The accounts do not agree on every detail of how the procedure unfolded, but they share the common elements of a graduation-stage handshake practice and allegations that staff behavior toward students was inappropriate. The reports center on the students’ experience during the ceremony and the alleged handling by school staff, rather than broader findings or disciplinary outcomes. At the time of these reports, specific responses from the school district or official investigation details are not included in the provided text.
