Graduation Ceremony
Tuesday. May 19, 2026
7:00PM @ Husky Stadium
Tickets: 12 graduation tickets will be issued to each graduate at graduation practice. Six of the twelve tickets will be color coded/marked as "rain tickets". In the event of poor weather, the ceremony will be moved to Bryant Bank Arena (large HTHS gym) and each family will have five "rain tickets" to use. Tickets will be distributed at graduation practice on Monday, May 19th at the Pavillion. They are not earmarked to any student, so tickets may be given to someone else if students have extra. Children under the age of two will not require a ticket.
HTHS Graduation Interpreter Request Form: As we prepare for graduation, we want to ensure that all of our guests are able to fully participate in and enjoy the ceremony. Sign language interpreter services will be available for hearing-impaired guests upon request. If you or a family member will need an interpreter, please complete the Google Form linked below no later than May 1st. This will help us make the necessary arrangements to best support your needs.
More details will be posted to the HTHS Graduation Website the week of April 20, 2026.
